Michael Salaam is Chaplain at the California Dept. of Corrections & Rehabilitation in Hanford, CA.

We recently hopped on a call where we discussed how he found purpose in becoming a Muslim Chaplain, what it was to gain access to vulnerability in the face of adversity, and how poetry become an outlet for him to reconnect with his self-awareness.
