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.
