What I'm Missing
What we've missed with the Broken On All Sides project: women's special oppression in prison (the fastest growing segment of the prison population), immigration detention and deportation and the overlap with mass incarceration. I want to explore these issues more, and work with groups with expertise on these issues.
We are particularly excited to be connected with Susan Burton of A New Way of Life, who focuses on women in prison and coming out, and Azadeh Shahshahani, who works in the Immigrants' Rights movement. Additionally, we work with Gale Muhammad of Women Who Never Give-up and Theresa Shoatz, who organize with families who have loved ones in prison.
