Ever received a letter from prison?
Most people don't know much or care about those who are behind bars, assuming all are monsters. Some are. Most are not. Most are so much more than the crimes they committed. Human beings with hopes, dreams, children, parents, grandparents. More like us than not.
Want to know more?
An amazing blog provides incarcerated people the chance to share their experiences. Between the Bars scans letters sent from prison and posts them. When people comment, they scan those and mail them back to the prisoners.
The blog is a platform for the 1% of Americans who are behind bars and denied access to the Internet. Go read the posts. Get between the bars. Glimpse lives hidden from view. A couple of examples are below (these are screen shots. Go to the blog to read more).
