In 2008, in San Quentin prison, a newspaper that had languished for twenty years came back to life. The San Quentin News was revived by a prisoner, a warden and a group of retired journalists.

One of those journalists is William Drummond. He recounts the power of telling stories in prison in a new book: “Prison Truth: The Story of the San Quentin News.”
