We are dimished by every broken heart

As many of you know, both my brothers died by suicide, and so, whenever I turn on the news and hear a report of another life being lost to despair and hopelessness, the little shard of ice in my chest whichnever quite melts, twists a little.Tyler Clementi, a talented musicianThis week, Tyler Clementi, a student at Rutgers University, jumped off the George Washington bridge after his roommate and…See More

A City of Crumpled Paper

During my prison writing class this week, one of my students approachedme and said he wanted to talk. Like all the men, he wears khaki scrubsand enormous khaki lace-up hiking boots (which seems a rather crueljoke). Like most of the men, he towers above me.

Don't avert your eyes

She felt quite comfortable writing about baking the loaf of bread, which seemed a pleasant sort of activity, one which…See More

(Heck, even some folks who can't form a simple…See More

THE SMALL VOICE OF TRUTH CLEARS ITS THROAT

Imagine yourself walking down the street. You see a crowd harassing a man, pushing him, calling him vile names, bullying him... the man looks frightened. Perhaps he is trying to protect someone he's with, perhaps his wife or child. The crowd, more of a mob now, past reason and spurred on by the force of its own numbers, becomes increasingly violent, both in word and deed. What will you do? Will you have the courage to speak out, to speak up, to stand beside the victim and face the mob?Or will…See More
