Prominent and renowned author, Mae Dixon pens a book that poignantly bares the untold saga of women locked behind bars. Worried about the struggles of women behind bars and how they are discriminated against and overlooked, Dixon deems it necessary to let their voices be heard through this book. She is committed to ensuring that women, unfairly treated behind the wall, get the justice they deserve.
Between 1980 and 2020, the number of incarcerated women ballooned by 475%, increasing from a total number of 26,326 in 1980 to 152,854 in 2020. This implies a rise in the number of women who suffer physical trauma at the hands of men behind bars. These experiences have gone on to take a toll on the mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being of these women. They have lost their life and self-esteem to these abusive treatments. Mae Dixon through this book enables women, incarcerated or once incarcerated, to bare their souls, heal, and reclaim their lives and self-esteem. These women share their traumatic experiences through personal narratives and poetry.
The 195-page book is cleverly written in a way that readers can easily relate to. The author leaves no stone unturned in ensuring that she echoes the struggles of incarcerated women.
This groundbreaking book also tells the resilience of women in the face of adversity. More so, Women Telling Our Story: Baring Our Souls From Behind the Wall is a testament that women can overcome so much together.
Dixon expertly advocates for reformation of the criminal justice system to allow for the humane treatment of women put away. The book also aims to dispel the stereotypes and stigma that incarcerated women face.
Women Telling Our Story: Baring Our Souls From Behind the Wall is available to be purchased on selected online retail bookstores. You can grab a copy in different formats on Amazon.
