The Scarlet Letter of Incarceration: Barriers to Women’s Re-entry

Over 1.9 million individuals leave women’s prisons and jails every year in the US. This process of returning to the community is labeled “re-entry”. In this episode of CRT2, we ask – What does the re-entry experience actually look like for Black women? The stories shared with us by four formerly incarcerated women and a justice impacted girl illuminate the sometimes gut wrenching journey one must go through after incarceration and en route to freedom. Extra feature included. See more information at https://crt2.podcasts.library.columbia.edu .

CRT2 is a project of the Studio for Law and Culture at Columbia University. Each podcast
episode is conceived, written, hosted and produced by students in the Critical
Race Theory Seminar Workshop at Columbia Law School. CRT2 will take our listeners from New
York to Louisiana, from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico to Paris, France, on a journey that shows the
global reach and relevance of Critical Race Theory.

Each episode of Columbia Race Talks/Critical Race Theory will cut through the fog of myth and
misinformation surrounding the CRT culture wars, to take a deep dive into issues of race, racism
and racial justice.
