A good article on how #prisoneducation changes folks. I taught behind bars for 10 years and saw the self esteem and confidence grow with women as they saw themselves as excellent students. #criminallegalsystem @msmagazine.com

This is some great news in a state that doesn't have parole. Congrats to the incarcerated men who drafted legislation to change the law. "Illinois is one of 17 states that has severely restricted or eliminated parole for those who are incarcerated." #prison #incarceration #criminallegalsystem

That gap between policy and lived reality is where my work lives.
