Jacobsen's tireless work with and for women prisoners is charted in this rich assemblage of images and texts that reveal the collective strategies she and the prisoners have employed to receive justice. The book gives evidence that women's lawbreaking is often an effort to survive gender-based violence. The faces, letters, and testimonies of dozens of incarcerated women with whom Jacobsen has worked present a visceral yet politicized chorus of voices against the criminal-legal systems that fail us all. Their voices are joined by those of leading feminist scholars in essays that illuminate the arduous methods of dissent that Jacobsen and the others have employed to win freedom for more than a dozen women sentenced to life imprisonment, and to free many more from torturous prison conditions. The book is a document to Jacobsen's love and lifelong commitment to creating feminist justice and freedom, and to the efficacy of her artistic, legal, and extralegal political actions on behalf of women. For Dear Life will appeal to scholars in gender studies, criminal justice, art and cinema studies, as well as to activists, lawyers, social workers, prisoners, former prisoners and survivors."--Page 4 of cover. 650 0 $a Women prisoners $x Civil rights $z United States. 650 0 $a Female offenders $z United States. 650 0 $a Discrimination in criminal justice administration $z United States. 650 0 $a Human rights $z United States. 650 7 $a Discrimination in criminal justice administration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895034 650 7 $a Female offenders. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922629 650 7 $a Human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 650 7 $a Women prisoners $x Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178400 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Lippard, Lucy R., $e writer of foreword. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Jacobsen, Carol (Artist) $t For dear life. $d Ann Arbor : University of Michigan Press, [2018] $z 9780472124183 $w (OCoLC)1038031169 $w (OCoLC)1038031169 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721015221.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC55FE9A586511EA978CCE3397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
