✍️ Inspired by prisoners’ enthusiastic response to creative writing classes she taught through the USC Dornsife Prison Education Project, Keziah Poole ’21 founded The Readers’ Circle program at USC in February 2022. ✍️ The program matches prisoners and those recently released from prison with volunteer USC faculty members and students, who provide assistance with writing projects. Help ranges from typing up handwritten work to copyediting to providing feedback on manuscripts. ✍️ USC faculty and students type, edit and provide editorial feedback to work sent in by imprisoned writers. ✍️ The program has had hundreds of submissions from 26 states, and organizers are working on adding a Spanish-language component. ✍️ Learn more about the program at the link in the bio. #PrisonReform #prisonlife #prisonstories #HigherEd #WritingSkills #USC #USCTrojans #USCDornsife
