"I
had met such characters as Glover, the inmate locked up in Isolation
cell F-9, during my twenty-year career as a Correction Officer at Somers
State Prison in Somers, CT. The isolation cells were units in the
segregation block, which housed the most troublesome or violent inmates.
Segregation also housed Death Row. Inmates locked alone for long
periods
of time often demonstrated extraordinary behaviors that sometimes enticed them to
create companions who didn’t exist. Such companions might be monsters or enemies or friends - depending!
SANCTIFIED
by Sally Rountree Klein was a favorite…story [also published in
Tributaries],
which reflected a narrator who, along her life’s journey, learned
to love and respect a culture foreign to her, because of racial
segregation and a nation’s divisive history, yet she found compatibility
and friendship.
My favorite line in the story was, ‘Wondering what it was like to be white as I wondered what it was like
to be black’."
