La Voz No Silenciada: Primera Entrevista a Filiberto Ojeda Rios-1986: Metropolitan Correctional Center (Spanish Edition)
Es ampliamente esclarecedor el contexto historico que nos traen en la obra tanto el prologuista como el periodista y autor, uno marcado por unos hechos que se dan en el periodo de los ultimos cincuenta anos de la lucha independentista en la Isla. Asi, toda la parte preliminar nos pinta un cuadro fiel y exacto de cual era la situacion imperante. El recurso de la entrevista periodistica, con su valioso elemento de difusion, puso altamente de manifiesto el alcance y la fuerza de la palabra escrita cuando recoge la expresion del pensamiento de una figura controversial o no comprendida en un momento dado del acontecer politico del pais. La persona entrevistada pudo asi proyectarse con energia por el poder de la comunicacion periodistica. Desde aquel momento, aquella publicacion vino a ser la carta de presentacion de un hombre que, como lider de los “Macheteros”, ya estaba insertado en la historia de Puerto Rico de manera unica, con los altos meritos de quien encarnaba en su mas valiente expresion el legado de anteriores movimientos de lucha combativa por la independencia de la patria. Lo recogido en la entrevista trae asi una muestra en pequeno de todo lo que fueron la vida y el pensamiento de Filiberto Ojeda Rios, plasmados para la posteridad en aquella serie de articulos periodico.

Chillicothe Correctional Center hosts annual Health Fair

Chillicothe Correctional Center hosts annual Health Fair
The staff at Chillicothe Correctional Center recently hosted their annual Health Fair, with 629 jail inmates in attendance.

Jail inmates attending the Health Fair were offered educational information from several resources. They were able to visit booths, which included:

• Dental booth offering educational pamphlets and advice
• Eye health booth complete with an eyeball model to learn about the structure of the eye
• Healthy Habits game area where jail inmates were awarded for correctly answering questions about Healthy Lifestyles

Jail inmates were also able to visit areas to learn about the Re-entry program, Diabetes, Blood Pressure and Drugs, Tobacco and Alcohol Awareness, among many others. Also, back by popular demand was the STD Roulette wheel, which could earn jail inmates a piece of candy for correctly answering a trivia question.

After reading jail inmate survey results, it was found that the jail inmates enjoyed the interaction with staff and feel what they learned was very beneficial. Some even stated that it made learning more fun!

A special Thanks to everyone who helped make the Health Fair a huge success!

A Woman Doing Life: Notes from a Prison for Women
A Woman Doing Life is the only book that tells stories of women in prison from the inside out. Author and inmate Erin George draws a vivid and uniquely raw portrait of female life in prison, detailing her own responses to incarceration as well as her observations of prison relationships, death and sickness, reactions from friends and family, and even “cooking” in prison. The text also features poignant stories from other female inmates.

Edited by Robert Johnson–esteemed scholar and editor of Victor Hassine’s Life Without Parole, Fourth Edition (OUP, 2009)–each chapter of the text opens with a helpful introduction that guides students as they read. An Afterword by noted scholar Joycelyn Pollock further helps place inmate testimonies into an academic context.

Offering profound insight into the too-often neglected issue of women in the criminal justice system, A Woman Doing Life is a must for courses in women and crime, gender and crime, and women in prison.
