Description: In this course, we will read literatures written about, within, and against prisons, developing critical perspectives on this institution and its functions. We will attend to a diverse set of voices, whose contexts include postcolonial and decolonial struggles, differently situated feminisms, the civil rights movement, and the prison abolitionist movement.
