2nd Class Citizens Assert 1st Amendment Rights Col. Writ. 11/14/14 Copyright Bryant Arroyo In the dead of the night Gov. Tom Corbett huddled with the choir of the legislature and the rest of his cronies (FOP) whom introduced an invidious, unconstitutional 'Chilling Effect' tantamount to a 'civil choke hold.' Gov. Corbett signed both HB2533 & SB508 on Oct. 3, 2014, which is legally unprecedented and has far-reaching implications that specifically targets and impacts for...

Mikhail Markhasev Corcoran, CA I wrote this essay in 2003, while I was in the hole (SHU). It was printed in The Beat Within, a youth outreach in the S.F. Bay area. I want to share it with A.P.W.A. You have my permission to post it. A few thoughts about the cell The cell... for some, it is a taste of hell — where single day is an eternity to dwell But as for me, when I’m in the cell a sweet serenity upon my heart it spells my doubt and uncertainty it quells my fear dispels — amidst the noise, ...

A MAJOR HANG-UP Ilve spent 22 years in maximum security facilities where the culture has a texture unique to that environment. Extremes are embraced when moderation would prove the more productive path. Violence, dominance and emasculation are the languages which most cons come to believe that they must be fluent in to communicate our strength and declare our manhood. I've been here in New Lisbon, a medium security facility for 2 years now. It's not nearly as yiolent as max because ...

9/30/2015 Advice for those new to prison By Cedric B. Theus I have been asked many times about how I got through almost twenty years in prison with my mind, body and spirit still in good condition. New prisoners often seek guidance from “veteran prisoners” on how to conduct themselves in order to minimize problems. That is the purpose of this composition. Losing one’s freedom is one of the most traumatic experiences that a normal person can have. It is in the nature of most animals to resist ...

Aloha Aloha, This is my first submission to the A.P.W.A. project. I haven't actually earned any professional degree or anything like that yet. However I have had some of my works published in various locations and have even received State and national recognition. I have had a fair amount of formal and informal study, training and actual experience in various communications fields. So you may say I have achieved the level of amateur or freelancer. But enough about me. Let's get down...

At virtually the same time, in our so—called "EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER lA&T' America, the indigent, ethnic minority, Troy Davis, got his dose of Hurricane Katrina, p...

Ask me about solitary confinement, and the Panda Bear If you were to‘ask me about solitary confinement I could tell you horror stories. But here is an example of how solitary confinement is abused and used as a tool to bully inmates. Here is a guy we will call Stan who has been in prison for the better part of 19 years. Stan has been virtually "ticket" free with only a couple minor disciplinary [tickets] infractions over the years.(On a scale of 1 to 10 on the problem scale- this gu...

BEHIND THESE WALLS By Ian Harewood Free will is all about choices. In prison you have no free will. Every day, you have to do what someone tells you. You can't wake up in the middle of the night and go for something as simple as ice-cream or a snack. I remember when I had free will growing up. I wish that my choices had been different. As a kid I was always trying to fit in. But back in those days, the dark-skinned guys were the butt of jokes in school, the ones who weren't popular....

Loyalty is essential. In my life loyalty is above all else, loyalty is paramount. All of my behaviors and former belief systems were predicated on the premise that disloyalty was tantamount to failure and destruction. I had prided myself on being loyal, and demanded it of those whom I associated with. That was to be my downfall. ‘ In 1996, I committed a crime with someone with whom I believed I could trust. I was mistaken, and my whole loyalty belief system was shaken. As luck or misfortune, ...

Some ask how I've been able to sustain my mental stability in such dismay times. As one must imagine life in captivity and the bellicosity this environment brings can cause a person to feel indifferent from humanity and civility. Prison tends to remove those simply human attributes and instead replace them with an abysmal, diabolic, malicious nature, ess...

Change is difficult Change is difficult. Growth is difficult. Real growth necessitates exploring and challenging my thoughts, feelings, beliefs, values, morals, and behaviors. Likewise, it includes taking a critical stance towards my environment. This is my life, everything in it is personal, intimate, and immersed in who I am. I cannot compartmentalize my life to such an exact that nothing touches my core. This is unhealthy, and illogical. I must, however, learn to develop a meaningful ratio...

Deceptive Justice By Jerome Williams, IN We have all heard or recited the United States Pledge of Allegiance, specifically that part which states "with freedom, liberty, and justice for all." I, however, submit to you that this declaration is no more than the line of a master con man. At first glance this argument may appear to be ludicrous at best. However, the truth is quite clear as it has always been present. It has just been suppressed by the continuous indoctrination and veili...

Defund MCI - Norfolk's Mainline Kitchen! By Daniel L. Holland I do not mean to sound insensitive to those in society who have trouble finding and/or affording food, but it is unconscionable what is happening here at Norfolk with food. Those fortunate enough to have honest work, earning a base salary between $75,000 and $85,000 per year plus, are as well being offered unlimited overtime, working in the kitchen (not the cardinal offense). While the inmate population is being force-fed, che...

Yet many people with physical or mental impairments have been precluded from doing so because of discrimination; others who have a record of disability or are regarded as having a disability also have been subjected to discrimination. Did you know historically, society has tended to isolate and segregate qualified...

What I wish to explain to you, are the factors that have been left unclarified, and what has succeeded since the ordeal. The Federal Bureau of Prisons has a totalitarian attitude towards its prisoners. Unfortunately for the prisoners, guards have been brainwashed and trained that they must never negotiate, or relent with their or...
