Cashing It In

When the California Department of Correction settled the civil rights lawsuit with me, one of the conditions of settlement was paying me $500. I was hoping that I could be able to make it out this year to cash my check. I guess not.

However, the check has a one-year expiration date so I must cash it or lose it. Now there's no way I'm going to let that happen.

When I held that check in my hand today, I felt a sense of triumph. I promise that I'll use the money for a good cause. After all, the lawsuit was not just about the money.

It was all about justice and civil rights.
