    Break the Chain: Incarcerated Women Fight for Prisoners’ Rights in the 1970s
    (2023-03-30) Hernandez, Layla; Keane, Katarina; History
    My research focuses on incarcerated women. Specifically, their contribution to the Prisoners' Rights Movement in the 1960s and the 1970s. I explain why convicted women are disregarded in society and how their status allows them to be overlooked by scholars. In addition, I give three examples of incarcerated women protesting for basic human rights all across the United States.
