Turning Stones into Schools

Isaiah 58: 9-12

• “If you do away with the yoke of oppression…and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will shine in the darkness…

Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.”

HopeVaclav Havel

Writing from solitary confinement:

“Hope is the certainty that a given action is right, that it makes sense regardless of the

outcome.”
