THE XIII

Your story matters

Rewrite Your History

This is a reminder that you can rewrite your history. We all have a past, but it does not define us. We also believe that vulnerability can change the world. Now it’s time to own that and put it in writing.

We all have a story

Add yours.

No names required. Say as much or as little as you want. You decide if it stays between us or joins the wall.

Where should this go?

Public submissions are reviewed by our team before anything is added to the Wall or social. We don’t publish hate speech, harassment, or anything that could identify someone else without their consent. You must be 18 or older to submit. Change your mind at any point and it comes down — email us and we take it off the site.

If things feel heavier than a shirt can hold: the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is free, confidential, and available right now — call or text 988.
