    Welcome blog post prisoners hope national justice law alliance

    Welcome to Prisoners Hope Blog

    We have made 4 categories for you to choose from. All topics are interesting and informative although not always optimistic but surely realistic. We hope you have an opportunity to learn and possibly be educated about the mass incarceration in the land of the free and home of the brave. Feel free to send material and we’ll review it and let you know if we can post it. Thanks again and please remember to donate.

    Pay it Forward!

    Paying it Forward – Cold Glass of Milk In the Prison Classes with 2% Recidivism Rate We Teach A “Pay It Forward” Type of Attitude. So we encourage the men here with true stories like this one to show them it’s not all about self. One day a young man who was selling encyclopedias knocked on the door of an elderly gentleman. The man answered the door and asked what the young man wanted. “I’m selling

    To Reform Or Not Reform!

    Do We Really Want Justice Reform Or Is It Just A Nice Thought? I have read the compressed volumes of Gulag Archipelago at least 7 or 8 times. It’s about the former Soviet Union and how it shot itself in the foot, by forming a “snitch” society that got so out of control that family members made up lies about each other just to avoid going to prison.  I believe we are falling into the

    A Cure for Aids/HIV

    Is A Cure for Aids/HIV being Suppressed? So the following [below] is an example of a solution to a very serious problem our `Think Tank” membership has knowledge of and seen work first hand. Because we are “prisoners” we are currently not able to collaborate the people or groups or resources necessary to proliferate this “solution” as well as others out to the world. If the “free world” won`t interact or entertain prisoners ideas, treating

    Security Taken Down by Mouse

    One of The Most Inspirational Stories You’ll Ever Read, Sent Your Way By A Mouse So as I have said before in this blog, I once was a bodyguard to the rich and famous. When I first came to prison, I celled up with a young Native American man. Which in of itself is unusual because my skin is white and he’s a native. Usually the races cell up together.

    A Typical Day in Prison

    Don’t come here! We wake at about 6am typically, go to breakfast which consists of either oatmeal, grits or cereal.  Either corn, or bran. We return to our units or go outside to workout at either the weight pile, or on bikes, stair steppers, or we go to our respective jobs. Either at Unicor, or other duties.  [However, usually the weights are all taken up by youngsters who are bodybuilders and the guys how really

    It’s Better in Prison!

    77 year old goes back to prison! So, here’s what drama happened today on our prison reality show here.  A gentleman who is 77 years old, finally was granted “compassionate release” about 6 weeks ago.  He showed back up here last night.  So we asked him what happened.  Get this. He cannot work a job at his age, nobody wants to hire him. He was at the halfway house. Thing is, he’s been in prison

    Caring For a Fallen Bird

    About 12 years ago, a baby bird fell out of one of the palm trees here at Terminal Island Federal Correctional Institute. The little bird was a Black Crown Night Heron, and was in desperate need of help, or it wouldn’t survive. It had a broken leg and as sometimes will happen; its brothers would swoop down and beat him up. It fell into a place full of criminals yes, but also a place full
