Creativity from Behind Bars
date: Jan 9, 2012
The Hip Hop Coloring Book has been out for a month and the support has been great. I’m really happy to be sending a coloring book to Aaron, who is currently incarcerated at Pike County Correctional Facility.
I wonder what I would do if I was to ever get locked up. As a black male thats a thought I ponder often. I hope this book aids in his mental freedom and encourages him to pursue his creativity even while in the most discouraging of circumstances.
