Still Here: A story of incarceration and gentrification in the US

Women are the fastest-growing imprisoned population in the United States. Since 1980, the number has increased by 750 percent. In 2017, there were more than 225,060 women in US prisons and jails. Eighty percent of those were mothers and two-thirds were women of colour. But what awaits the roughly two million American women and girls released from prisons and jails each year? According to the Prison Policy Initiative, a US think-tank that researches the effect of mass criminalisation, most policies and programmes for formerly jailed people are still focused on men. This, despite the fact that formerly imprisoned women - particularly women of colour - are more likely to experience homelessness and unemployment and are less likely to have a high school education than men who have been released from jail or prison.
