If I find a heaven after this life, I’ll be quite surprised, Rubin Carter said shortly before his death. In my own years on this planet, though, I lived in hell for the first 49 years, and have been in heaven for the past 28 years. In those 28 years of heaven, Rubin Carter changed the world, one speech, one photograph, one exoneration case at a time. He had every right to give in to the anger he surely felt. Instead, famously, he said that hatred and bitterness and anger only consume the vessel that contains them. It doesnt hurt another soul.
