Halim Flowers:
In the year of 1997, at the age of 16, Halim Flowers was charged in the District of Columbia as an adult for being an accomplice to a felony murder. His experiences as a child inside of the DC Department of Corrections was filmed in the Emmy award winning documentary “Thug Life In DC." He was taken to trial and convicted under the accomplice liability doctrine of felony murder and sentenced to a term of 40 years to life imprisonment. During his incarceration, he discovered his love for the literature & arts. His childhood friend Momolu Stewart encouraged him to start freestyle rapping. Through the encouragement of Anissa Chisley, who started writing to Halim after watching the Thug Life In DC film, he began to write poetry. Transitioning from rap to poetry further intensified his connection with words and using them to creatively express the trauma of growing up in DC during the Crack era when it was known for having the highest murder rate of any city in America and receiving a life sentence as a child. In the year of 2005, he started his own publishing company “SATO Communications”, SATO being an acronym for Struggle Against The Odds. On March 21, 2019, after serving 22 years and 2 months behind bars, Halim was released back into society. Since his release, he received the Halcyon Arts Lab and Echoing Green fellowships, and spoken at panels at universities and conferences around the country about the impact of the arts and entrepreneurship to correct our criminal injustice system.
