Klappentext
Drawn from the American Prison Writing Project Archive, a pivotal anthology of essays by incarcerated writers about the prison's role in perpetuating harm
Prison is neither the beginning of the inquiry nor the end. Thus, writers from across carceral institutions in the US unfold the multiple and intersecting ways that violence shapes and informs their lives, prior to, during, and after incarceration. They illuminate violence as a contextual phenomena shaped by historical trauma, cycles of deprivation, and systemic inequities. Harm and Punishment reveals the interconnectedness of personal and structural violence, tracing the way violence often emerges within the fabric of communities profoundly shaped by poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia.
The stories, testimonies, and reflections collected here serve as bridges toward a new imagination. They expose the limitations of punishment and move us closer to a vision of collective care and mutual responsibility. In bearing witness to the experiences of incarcerated writers, readers become part of a profound shared endeavor to dismantle the barriers of misunderstanding and fear, opening pathways to action and change.
