MEAN LIVES, MEAN LAWSOklahoma’s Women PrisonersSusan F. Sharp“Mean Lives, Mean Laws is historically, theoretically and methodologically remarkable. But even more importantly, the self-reported rates and words of real incarcerated women about their harsh lives before, in, after, and sometimes upon re-entry to prison are powerful testimonies to how the U.S. system is fundamentally flawed in responding to women and girls as victims and offenders.”—Joanne Belknap, author of The Invisible Woman: Gender, Crime, and
