商品描述

A gripping and deeply-felt examination of incarcerated women's lives

With unflinching clarity, Hidden Healers cuts through the myths about incarcerated women to expose the all-too-real brutalities they face within a criminal legal system never designed for them. Backed by three decades' experience providing therapeutic programs inside prisons across the United States, trauma specialist Dr. Stephanie Covington has used her unique access to amplify the voices of the women themselves. Their stories illuminate realities most never see: that most women who get caught up in the criminal justice system have themselves been victims of harm, that the degradations of today's prisons and jails only magnify their trauma- and that incarcerated women regularly risk punishment to tend to one another's well-being in unexpected acts of kindness. Grounded in research and rich with personal narrative, Hidden Healers is a poignant and riveting look inside women's prisons and jails- and what we can do to help.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《隱藏的療癒者》是一本引人入勝且深入感受到的關於被監禁女性生活的研究。這本書毫不畏懼地揭示了有關被監禁女性的謬誤，揭露了她們在一個從未為她們設計的刑事法律體系中所面臨的殘酷現實。作為一位在美國各地監獄提供治療計劃的專家，創傷專家斯蒂芬妮·科文頓博士利用她獨特的接觸機會，放大了這些女性自己的聲音。她們的故事揭示了大多數人從未見過的現實：大多數卷入刑事司法體系的女性本身也是受害者，當今的監獄只會加劇她們的創傷，而被監禁的女性經常冒著懲罰的風險，以意想不到的善行照顧彼此的福祉。《隱藏的療癒者》以研究為基礎，充滿個人敘述，是一本觸動人心且引人入勝的女性監獄和拘留所內部的觀察，以及我們可以做些什麼來幫助她們。
