Good morning, Bluesky! It's @kashawntaylor.bsky.social here, ready for my first full day manning PJP's account. I'm a formerly incarcerated writer and a PJP alum. I absolutely love the work that PJP does, and without PJP, I don't think I would have had the confidence to write from prison.

I want to read about life experiences different than mine; It can only happen this way if we support PJP.
We're about $1,000 away from our goal! We have ONE day left. Triple your impact. Please quote repost this, if you can, and share why you support Prison Journalism Project or why you've donated before.
News: Our summer campaign concludes tomorrow at midnight, which means time is rapidly running out to take advantage of the $15K matching funds provided by generous donors. Thanks to an additional $5K gift from a generous donor, every donation will now be tripled until those funds are exhausted.

I think one reason that prisons, and by extension the entire criminal justice system, are able to be as barbaric as they are is that prisons and prisoners are for the large part invisible. That's why I think PJP is so important for those inside as well as for humanity at large
