First published in 1997, this book identifies the problems that
face black women in the criminal justice system as the result of
the articulation of unequal and oppressive class, race and gender
relations; the research aims to be aware of all three rather than
prioritising, isolating or reducing one or two of these relations.
The focus of this research primarily on black women is based on the
belief that they are marginalised in both society and
criminological research. Black women are poorly represented in
education, employment, the professions, commerce, industry and
politics while in prison their presence is highly disproportionate
to their wider numbers in society. The author examines the problems
facing black women and compares these with those facing black men
and white women to demonstrate the articulation of social
relations. He addresses the structural positions of black women in
society, their social relations and the nature of the institutional
practices of the criminal justice system.
