Got back on Twitter just to say @PENamerica has been called out for failing to pay incarcerated writers, has done nothing to amend the harm caused through its prison programming, and is now taking credit for work *I did without PEN* to amp its latest prison writing initiative.

🧵PEN America introduces the Incarcerated Writers Bureau, a digital resource for professionals seeking to work with writers and journalists in US prisons. The website features a database of best practices, a submission hub, and writer profiles. Read more: pen.org/press-release/…

Excited to be a part of this! It's been an incredible four years seeing what is possible when outside journalists team up with incarcerated journalists to tell stories about prison.

@SecurusTech @Aventiv_Tech is a predatory company that is essentially stealing from a prison journalist I work with. Please help us amplify this message as a last resort -- they ghosted me after I pressured them to refund her.
Empowerment Avenue@EmpowermentAve

@SecurusTech @Aventiv_Tech is valued at $1.5 BILLION. So why has this company stolen hundreds of dollars from prison journalist Kwaneta Harris, due to an account "glitch" that charges her for duplicate messages? And why have they ghosted our demands that she is refunded?

Those who are brave enough to practice journalism in prison often encounter the most aggressive intimidation and retaliation from prison administrators and guards. shadowproof.com/2023/09/19/fro…

Freelancers know how rare it is to find a publication that pays well, on time, and with respect. @theappeal doesn't just do that - they hire, pay + support incarcerated writers who have been shut off and shut down from so many pubs. PLEASE throw them a few bucks if you can!
