Prep Note 9-19-23

(Kelvin or Terrance) “In many states, up to 80 percent of the youth who are incarcerated are rearrested within 3 years of release” (CSG Justice Center). What are two pieces of advice you would give to a juvenile?

 

(Dr. Coogan) It’s discussed in the book that many ex-convicts are stigmatized and very disadvantaged when it comes to being employed. How do you look to change the narrative through these writing workshops?

Prep Note 9/19/23 – Lunch Meeting Questions

(For Coogan) What about the project would you do differently if you were to start from the beginning, before you’ve met any of the writers, given the insight you have now?

(For Kelvin or Terrence) How did your viewpoint/attitude on the project as a whole change as you went through it? Did you expect to get a lot out of it personally or really make an impact before you got into it?

Prep Note – 9/18

Questions for Tuesday’s lunch:

(Kelvin and Terrence) Obviously, being in prison has shaped your life paths and personality. But to what extent do you think that your incarceration has defined your life?

(Kelvin and Terrence) One of the takeaways of the book is the injustice within our justice system. What are some things that you think could be applied to get closer to a just and meritocratic society?

(Kelvin and Terrence) What are the main takeaways of having contributed to the publication of a book?

(Kelvin and Terrence) What are some things you have regret in life and why?

(David Coogan) How does it feel to have been engaged to that extent with people in prison but have not been one of them? Did you start seeing specific patterns, understanding them better, and empathizing with them?
