The rate of women entering prison has increased nearly 400 percent since 1980 with African American women constituting the largest percentage of this population However despite their extremely disproportional representation in correctional institutions little attention has been paid to their experiences within the criminal justice systemInner Lives provides readers the rare opportunity to intimately connect with African American women prisoners By presenting the womens stories in their own voices Paula C Johnson captures the reality of those who are in the system and those who are working to help them Johnson offers a nuanced and compelling portrait of this fastestgrowing prison population by blending legal history ethnography sociology and criminology These striking and vivid narratives are accompanied by equally compelling arguments by Johnson on how to reform our nations laws and social policies in order to eradicate existing inequalities Her thorough and insightful analysis of the historical and legal background of contemporary criminal law doctrine sentencing theories and correctional policies sets the stage for understanding the current system
