"As I began to walk, there was a gentle rain. I became engulfed with
unfamiliar emotions as my capacity to feel returned, overtaking strong defense mechanisms
ingrained over years of incarceration. I began to feel sorrow, the pain of prisoners lost, the
loss of Kevin. Names, faces all came into focus as did the deprivation
of simple basic aspects of life I no longer knew. Most important, for me, the true meaning
of Prison Justice Day became clear. It did not matter what others did or did not do. This was my
day to grieve the way I wanted to, remembering those who died naturally or unnaturally while inside.
The tears came, the rain increased; in the words of a dear friend, 'God knows our suffering,
and is crying with us."
-Robert Brydon, from JPP Vol. 3: 1 & 2 (1991)
