Since 2021, each year, we have awarded two prizes for an original essay of 1,500 words or less on the topic of prisons, policing or a related subject. It may be written as a first-person narrative (although that is not a requirement). Each of the two winners is awarded a prize of $3,000.

Keeley was incarcerated, on and off, over the course of 14 years. She wrote often, both poetry and prose, particularly focusing on her experiences of incarceration and addiction. Keeley spoke out publicly about the inhumanity of the U.S. prison system and wrote about her own experience of incarceration. She <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/truthout.org\/articles\/i-was-shackled-to-my-bed-after-giving-birth-then-they-took-my-baby-away\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wrote this essay<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> about giving birth while incarcerated, and the brutality of being separated from her newborn baby. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeley died on February 4, 2020. <\/span>This prize is in the spirit of Keeley&#8217;s desire for the kind of world where everyone can live a good life.<\/p><div class=\"truth-post-content-high\"
