Letters to an Incarcerated Brother: Encouragement, Hope, and Healing for Inmates and Their Loved Ones Description
A compelling, important addition to Hill Harper’s bestselling series, inspired by the numerous young inmates who write to him seeking guidance After the publication of the bestselling
Letters to a Young Brother, accomplished actor and speaker Hill Harper began to receive an increasing number of moving letters from inmates who yearned for a connection with a successful role model. With disturbing statistics on African-American incarceration on his mind (one in six black men were incarcerated as of 2001, and one in three can now expect to go to prison some time in their lifetimes), Harper set out to address the specific needs of inmates.
A powerful message from the heart,
Letters to an Incarcerated Brother provides advice and inspiration in the face of despair along with encouraging words for restoring a sense of self-worth. As the founder of Manifest Your Destiny, a nonprofit outreach program for at-risk teens, Harper has seen firsthand the transformative effect of mentorship and the power of a positive role model. This latest addition to Hill Harper’s
Letters series delivers visionary, compassionate responses to the real-life circumstances of inmates. As with the other
Letters books, Harper includes moving contributions from top educators, activists, thought leaders, and entertainers. Uplifting and insightful,
Letters to an Incarcerated Brother provides the hope and inspiration inmates and their families need.

i really dug where he went with this book and how he broke the lingo down on the inside and how he responded. i happen to walk by this book recently and had to check it out and really enjoyed it, though its a very serious read and journey. one of those books that i would recommend.

HALL OF FAME
I really like the book. It could help many brothers in our prison. I wish more people would reach out to our brother, sons, and friends in prison. People tend to have an out of sight out of mind to people who are in jail and forget about them. Hill is a very nice and passionate person I had to chance to see him in person. I believe if more people would get this book to people in prison we wouldn't have as many people returning to prison.
