On the eve of the U.S. midterms, here's a 2024 story from Prison Journalism Project written by four incarcerated writers who've never been able to vote. "I have begun to think of everything I do in the community as a referendum. If I pick up a bit of trash, I am voting for a clean community. If I leave it there, well, that’s a vote too. If I refrain from violence, even in thought, I am voting for a more loving world. Even though the state has the power to stop me from drying off, it can never keep me from getting into the water of democracy. It’s where we live and I’m gonna splash around as much as I can," says Troy Chapman.
