Haven't posted here in a few years. But since Senator Kennedy quoted a post from this account today at a Senate hearing on pregnancy behind bars at which I testified, I thought it would be a good time to share. See the recording of the hearing here: c-span.org/video/?537460-…
There are so many reasons to de-carcerate now. Thanks to Jody Rich for stating this so clearly. @ARRWIP washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
Having deep appreciation for @RepPressley's attention to the health and wellbeing of incarcerated mothers. We've come a long way, but have so much more work to do. @cbsufrin @LGoshin @mjzielinski_phd @prisondoulas @PrisonBirth @momsbeyondbars @IBJPrisonDoulas

@WesternBruce @_zulema_valdez @ewarren Thread on Bruce Western’s experiences with Elizabeth Warren as an academic colleague.
Women in jail are the fastest-growing correctional population in the country, increasing 14-fold between 1970 and 2014. Our Overlooked report spotlights the growing issue of incarcerated women in jails—a majority of whom are mothers & women of color. bit.ly/2qITPYf

The @nytimes editorial board spells it out: "What changed in so few years to make the Supreme Court want to relitigate its own recent precedent? One thing: the makeup of the court." #MyRightMyDecision

How can we challenge the widely held belief that race/ethnicity has a biological basis and encourage medics/researchers to look at racism instead as a epidemiological variable? Tweeting @DorothyERoberts talk on the problem with race-based medicine again ted.com/talks/dorothy_…
Check out this deep dive, honest, disturbing report on the treatment of incarcerated women in our country, from the US Commission on Civil Rights. Appreciate our non-partisan government institutions that pay attention to those who are overlooked. @USCCRgov

Carolyn Sufrin @cbsufrin: “Women who don’t count don’t get counted... the lack of any comprehensive or updated statistics about pregnancy among women behind bars signals the systematic disregard in the carceral system, and indeed our country, for incarcerated pregnant people.”
Looking forward tremendously to being part of these conversations in April @MichiganSTS!
Deeply appreciate the focus on community engagement and co-creation in implementation science. Whatever the question, the answer is in the community. blackwomenbirthingjustice.org/blog @mclemoremr @IVAPhD @Authorbray @RjWarrior #SMFM20

I learned so much from @Motherjustice and @Reprorightsdoc in co-writing this piece in @AMJPublicHealth latest issue. Understanding mass incarceration through the lens of repro justice tells us everything about the intersecting oppressions of carcerality and white supremacy.
