Join us for our monthly conversation with historians, researchers, and educators as we discuss topics related to Indiana’s Black heritage.
Our presenters, Drs. Michelle Daniel Jones and Elizabeth Nelson will discuss the Indiana Women's Prison History Project, a group of currently and formerly incarcerated scholars who research and publish original histories of gender, race, and incarceration in Indiana. Daniel Jones and Nelson will explore the process of doing history inside the Indiana Women's Prison that led to the publication of their co-edited volume, Who Would Believe a Prisoner?: Indiana Women's Carceral Institutions, 1848-1920 (The New Press, 2023).
