Essay: Golden State Paradise 

Summary: A captivating written piece that takes you into the world of California's state penitentiary system as a prisoner and a survivor.

From MANA Scholar: This essay was originally an assignment for my English 1C class. It gives you a brief insight inside the dystopian world of prison. Everything stated with the exception of my own experience in the third body paragraph is public information that you can find online and on prison documentaries. I pray that this reading enlightens you and empowers you to want to make a change in people's lives.
