Voices from Our Community

Real stories from readers, writers, and supporters

Your voice matters.

Your truth has weight.

We built this to carry it.

“BEING STRONG DON’T MEAN YOU NEVER BREAK.

IT MEANS YOU KEEP GOING EVEN WHEN YOU DO.”

- Megan Thee Stallion

“In here, time don’t heal — it just teaches you to hide the wound better. But when someone on the outside remembers you exist, even just for five minutes, it reminds you that you’re still human. That’s what keeps me breathing."

- Level 4 inmate, Michigan DOC
