What is Racialized, Sexualized, and Criminalized: Carceral Citizenship of Black Women about?
Black women in the criminal legal system have distinct racialized, gendered, and classed experiences as a result of their intersectional identities. Carceral citizenship , an alternative form of citizenship in which individuals with criminal records simultaneously experience disadvantages and advantages of membership, largely does not discuss the experiences of Black women. Its application to Black women, however, demonstrates that carceral citizenship extends instead of introduces social control in the lives of Black women, an efficient dehumanizing tool for differential outcomes in the lives of Black women. Their carceral citizenship is borne out of their standing as citizens within the US-a belonging not fully afforded. However, Black women carceral citizens demonstrate individual and collective resistance against the longstanding surveillance and criminalization perpetuated by the criminal legal system, working tirelessly on behalf of others in line with the legacies of Black women's resistance.
