The Netflix series Orange is the New Black has drawn widespread
attention to many of the dysfunctions of prisons and the impact
prisons have on those who live and work behind the prison gates.
This anthology deepens this public awareness through scholarship on
the television program and by exploring the real-world social,
psychological, and legal issues female prisoners face. Each chapter
references a particular connection to the Netflix series as its
starting point of analysis. The book brings together scholars to
consider both media representations as well as the social justice
issues for female inmates alluded to in the Netflix series Orange
is the New Black. The chapters address myriad issues including
cultural representations of race, class, gender, and sexuality;
social justice issues for transgender inmates; racial dynamics
within female prisons; gender and female prison
structures/policies; treatment of women in prison; re-incarcerated
and previously incarcerated women; self and identity; gender, race,
and sentencing; and reproduction and parenting for female inmates.
