Details about Women, Writing, and Prison: Activists, Scholars, and Writers Speak Out It's Easy to W.R.I.T.E. Expressive Writing:

This collection includes a kaleidoscope of voices and perspectives from prisoners, former prisoners, scholars and activists to examine the extraordinarily invisible and closed system of incarceration that characterizes the massive U.S. prison industry. The book explores in multiple ways, the role of writing in carceral settings, including material realities, ethics, and social justice. It is a book about the power of writing as well as its limits. It is a book that celebrates and critiques, challenges, and reveals. It is a book that, like the writing of incarcerated women, repays careful reading.
