This crisis won’t be resolved until we stop the political polarization associated with housing men in women’s prisons. These policies are being used by predatory men, and a large percentage of these men are registered sex offenders and have long histories of violence against women. One person’s safety CANNOT come at the cost of another’s. There are ways to ensure the whole incarcerated community is treated with respect, agency and dignity. Our lawmakers are just going to have to value human lives over money.

Met with my former housing staff today. When she shared that she had to strip search men, it was like she was shrinking as she was talking. What she experienced is exactly what I said was going to happen. She, much like the athletes, and like the female prisoners, are all being dehumanized, devalued, and degraded. This movement has never been about equality. This is about supremacy and if women don’t stand shoulder to shoulder and fight this we will be erased.
