“First, I took courses for my own self help. As I began to grow and develop, I started to notice that the population started to get younger and younger. At that age, you can come in with only one year to go, but if prison culture grabs you and you don’t make the right improvements, then that one year can turn into fifty. And I’ve seen that. So I developed several courses and I ran a class called Young Men’s Empowerment Group.”
