"and reached out to share
yours with me at a moment
when l can hear you.

"your friend and brother,

Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter."
1:11:21
Wow.
1:11:24
You got your answer.
1:11:28
Yeah.
1:11:31
Dear Rubin,
1:11:34
l've been thinking about my life
compared to yours.
1:11:39
l come from Bush wick
in Brooklyn.
1:11:42
My parents are alcoholics,
and my brother's in prison.
1:11:47
l was third in my class,
and l couldn't even read.
1:11:50
l couldn't write you
this letter just a year ago,
1:11:54
but then l met these friends
from Canada when l had
a summerjob at the EPA.
1:12:00
They offered to educate me,
and they got me out.
1:12:06
Sometimes l feel guilty
about my family
'cause l left 'em behind.
1:12:10
Now that l know you,
l know it isn't right.
1:12:15
l shouldn't cry
about my own feelings,
1:12:19
not if you can do
what you've done.
1:12:22
l've been thinkin 'though,
l would like to come
and visit you,
1:12:26
if that will be all right.
