“Life Letter”

I was invited to add visuals to Michael Bell’s audio story called “Life Letter.” The work is part of a larger project organized by Dr. Rachel McMillian and Erica Meiners in collaboration with incarcerated men serving long sentences in the state of Illinois. A forthcoming curriculum guidebook will offer lesson plans, stories, art, resources, and action items to use in classrooms and beyond.
