I’m bothered when I read how Blacks in the 21 Century are still enduring racial slurs, or suppressing their culture, via hairstyles, fashion, music, etc. just to fit into white America. I can’t believe I’m reading articles like this today. And it saddens me to say that a […]
Everyone is yelling get out and vote. As if our votes really count. No presidential candidate ever represents the people who were never intended to be a part of this country. Donald Trump and Joe Biden are not going to do anything notable for the poor, Blacks or […]
Everyone keeps saying vote that’s how you change things. Well look at what happened when we voted Obama. We still got the same problems and issues. So in one sense I agree with that, but in another I totally disagree. Your vote only counts if you got the […]
I got a lot of respect for Donald Trump, like him or not, he’s a real gangster. Not like your neighborhood gangstas. Although they should take note. He’s in a position of power and he’s doing and making Executive decisions unapologetically. Not caring who feels some type of […]
What do you do when you know you suffered an injustice in a wicked system, due to malicious prosecution and devilish detectives? That’s the question I’ve been forced to deal wit over these last 16 years. Even more so, now that I’ve tried to file for early release […]
I love what you all are doing, that whole spirit of rebellion is the American way. Its the same energy that America used to gain its independence from Great Britain. So no fault there. The spirit of rebellion is really Making America Great Again(MAGA). Its allowing the prejudice […]
Welcome aboard flight 2020, God is the Captain. Our destination will be peace and tranquility. So relax as we get ready takeoff. Please make sure your attitude and blessings are secured and locked in a upright position. All self destructive devices should be turned off at this time. […]
Here lately, especially out in California there’s been a lot of protest about loosening up or doing away with the lock down restrictions. Which I totally understand, being that I’m really incarcerated. For Sixteen years now, only to have the corona virus reschedule my early release court date […]
This is a very passionate topic for me, doing this time I have discovered that I hate religion. At least what it is today. Religion is hypocritical. Its division. I always tell people its another form of gang banging. Instead of colors, it’s sects and denominations. I experience […]
Being in prison has made me question the whole idea of rehabilitation. And why it may or may not work? I know guys that have went home and they are doing well as law abiding citizens, however, I know a lot more guys that have come back or […]
I was just thinking about all the relationships that take place in prison on a regular basis. I know most of you are probably thinking the homosexual relationships amongst inmates, but that’s not what I’m talking about. There’s a lustful, deep craving for the bad boys of society. […]
Prison can be what you make it here in Ohio.It’s not as serious as it use to be. It’s more mental today, although you can get what you looking for. I’ve been incarcerated for sixteen years, and I’ve seen a major shift in mentalities from C.O.’s, to staff, […]
It amazes me how the sting of death still leaves us with so many scars. For some they never get back to living their own lives. And for others they take their lives or destroy them with drugs. Death has never really been a mystery, as we all […]
A lot of people are feeling a way about the Corona Virus, so am I. There’s a lot of deaths and suffering caused by the virus. It has even pushed back my early release court. However, there’s so much beauty that has came from the Corona. It has […]
Thank you for this opportunity. My name is Robert A. Smith Jr and I’m 39 years old. I’ve been incarcerated since August 2004 and my release date is January 2025. Since I’ve been incarcerated I have grown a lot. In the beginning I had a wild phase, stayed […]
