This actually came out of a news article I read prompting me to better understand the effect of incarceration on women and families in the United States. Because incarceration rates still unfairly and disproportionately show that minorities are getting arrested I wondered how this would affect women's ability to be part of the workforce and how often their voices are included in conversations around the hidden costs of racism. The fact that women hold together a family structure is often an impediment to fully realizing career growth potential and a barrier to opportunity in the first place.
