This is what it is like to be held in solitary confinement in a US prison For those of us who have experienced isolation in prison, it’s a trauma that never leaves.

My mentee Tariq MaQbool just dropped an incredible piece about solitary confinement. Two days later, they raided his cell and now he's under "investigation." No one at NJSP will tell me, or his family, why. www.aljazeera.com/features/lon...

If I had extra income I think I would buy all the haunted objects on Facebook Marketplace, put them in my office, and see what happens. Maybe the ghosts would fall in love.
