A beautifully written, heart-wrenching collection of essays. The writing styles were much more accessible than I anticipated. The content is upsetting—but it depicts the violent reality that gender-oppressed people, particularly Black, Indigenous, and other gender-oppressed people of color, must combat every day under the prison industrial complex. The anthology also has an excellent list of tools and resources for learning more and taking action.
