A groundbreaking collective work of history by a group of incarcerated scholars has resurrected the lost truth about the first women's prison in the United States. The Indiana Womens Prison History Project, awarded the Indiana History Outstanding Project for 2016 by the Indiana Historical Society, has worked under extreme duress to excavate documents, navigate draconian limitations on information, and grapple with the unprecedented challenges of co-authors living on either side of the prison walls. With contributions from ten incarcerated or formerly incarcerated women, the result is a document that is both a shocking revelation of the roots of Americas first prison for women and a meditation on incarceration itself. Who Would Believe a Prisoner? is a book that will be read and studied for years to come as the nation continues to grapple with the crisis of mass incarceration.
