I’m an incarcerated journalist. Today Securus, a predatory prison communication co, silenced journalists. With no warning they deleted all drafts of writing. Years of work. Manuscripts. Articles. Everything gone. We’re no longer able to save drafts. Now near impossible to write.

It's a wrap. The 2023 WPI BME REU programs ended on August 4th. It was an amazing summer hosting these students to perform research in labs and startups at WPI.

Equally important as the research and startup experiences these students obtained, the students developed videos encompassing "Stories in Bioengineering" to improve public awareness of bioengineering. wp.wpi.edu/reu-bme/stories-i…

We went to a local summer camp for WPS middle schoolers, introduced them to our field of study and showed them our videos. They had amazing questions and hopefully were inspired to pursue future studies and careers related to bioengineering.

i beg you to imagine a life where you have to work for more than 14 hours to afford 1 tube of toothpaste
At my prison many jobs pay only .$42/hour. A phone call costs $1.43--3.5 hours to cover the cost of that call. A 3-ounce bag of freeze-dried coffee is $3.34, or 8 hours of work. A tube of Colgate Sensitive toothpaste is $6.10—more than 14.5 hours of work. theappeal.org/prison-labor-s…
