A collection of Jackson's letters from prison, Soledad Brother is an outspoken condemnation of the racism of white America and a powerful appraisal of the prison system that failed to break his spirit but eventually took his life. Jackson's letters make palpable the intense feelings of anger and rebellion that filled Black men in America's prisons in the 1960s. But even removed from the social and political firestorms of the 1960s, Jackson's story still resonates for its portrait of a man taking a stand even while locked down.

A story about exclusion. A story about being valued only when you become useful. Misfit Magic revisits a familiar story with new attention —exploring what it reveals about identity, dignity, and the quiet ways people are asked to change in order to belong.
