But how did he die? Who were the killers? Those questions haunted Dee and wreaked havoc on her psyche for thirty years. Finally, when she joined the Forgotten Victims of Attica, she began to find answers. This began the process of bringing closure not only for herself but for the other victims' families, the former prisoners she met, and all of those who perished on September 13, 1971-the day of the "retaking," when New York State troopers and corrections officers at the Attica Correctional facility slaughtered twenty-nine rioting prisoners and ten hostages in a hail of gunfire. In The Prison Guard's Daughter, Dee brings readers in on her lifelong mission for the truth and justice for the Attica survivors and the families of the men who lost their lives. But the real win was the journey that crossed racial and criminal-justice divides: befriending infamous Attica prisoner Frank "Big Black" Smith, meeting Richard Clark and other inmates who tried to carry her father to safety after his beating, and learning what life was like for all of the people-prisoners and prison employees alike-inside Attica. As Miller lays bare the truth about her father's death, the world inside Attica, and the state's reckless raid and coverup, she conveys a narrative of compassionate humanity and a call for prison reform."--Amazon. 600 10 $a Miller, Deanne Quinn. 600 10 $a Quinn, William 610 20 $a Attica Prison. 610 20 $a Attica Correctional Facility. 650 0 $a Prisons $x Crimes against $x Crimes against $z New York (State) $v Biography. 650 0 $a Prison riots $z New York (State) 700 1 $a Craig, Gary, $d 1959- $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210918010147.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B275558C184511ECB6BD5C9329ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
