We approached the exact same door from two different perspectives: you were eager and excited, and I was angry as all-get-out. We did, however, share the same goals of knowledge and strength, and we found a lot of the same friends. My greatest times there were as an Inmate Counsel. You’ve come a LONG way, Calvin. Keep approaching doors with that same excitement!
Thank you, man. You are right - no matter how we found our way there, we had a lot of good times together. We were at the top of our game in those days, my friend!
I’m loving these posts, Calvin. Can’t overstate how proud I am of you and the incomparable Soph. So lucky to have crossed paths with you so many years ago.
Hey Marcus. We couldn't have made progress on so many things we have without you. We need our friends on the outside as much as on the inside. Proud to work with you too, brother.
Calvin, YOU have gotten me though some very hard times with just your plucky optimism and sharp wit. You've pushed me to be and do better in infinite ways, whether via gratitude, kindness, smiling when I didn't feel like it, perseverance, and so much more.
Can’t wait to read the book. Reading these few paragraphs just make you more anxious
Thank you, Starr!
Wonderful post, and what a beautiful reminder of the power of libraries and the communities they create.
That's a great way of putting it, thanks Bora.

That means a lot to me, Jessica. I'm blessed to have met you and I miss you being across the street.
Sóooooo proud of the jailhouse lawyer.
