Dear SQNews,
Hope when you get this latter it finds the staff in the very best of spirits I’ve been reading the San Quentin News for about 10 years and wish that I was incarcerated there instead of (Fla) with mayor Newsom and the progressive democrats it’s actually second changes for inmates, Gov. Desantes (R) (Fla) just voted a bill (181) for the old parole system. I be listening to the pod cast (San Quentin). Keep me in the loop with more subscriptions.

Dear SQNews,
Hello! May I being by applauding your work. The paper is of such a professional caliber, that not only are we accurately informed but also inspired. For the publication of the S.Q. Paper with it’s admirable standard bears living testimony to just what we prisoners can accomplish. We are not all journalists, however we can extract fresh encouragement from the S.Q. News, as we strive to be the best we can in our own respective spheres. So upon the behalf of many who are behind these walls, searching on how to be of significance and influence in our own daily lives, a most robust thank you! Sincerely having expressed this, the purpose for this latter is to see if you could please print the accompanying flyer in one of your upcoming editions? This has been in the works at the grass-roots level for a number of years in various prisons. Publicizing it in your paper will increase the awareness and produce more traction, thank you for your paper, your time and any assistance you may be able to provide.

Dear SQNews,
Greetings and may peace and blessings be upon you, your families and everyone doing the work. My concern is that soy beans its oil is in many products we man consume and soy has estrogen female hormones in it and if enough is consumed we will grow female breast. The products soy is in are nutty buddy wafers, oatmeal cream pie, prep cookies these are canteen items and the system gives the Oreo cookies out in the lunches. This in my opinion is an assaulted on incarcerated me and men in general, but we are limited in the items we can consume we at least should have a voice in what we can eat. I for one do not wish to have female breast. Sound the alarm if you are with me. Every man should know that soy is no good for men.
