Chicana Lives and Criminal Justice uses oral history to chronicle the lives of twenty-four Chicana pintas (prisoners/former prisoners) repeatedly arrested and incarcerated for non-violent, low-level economic and drug-related crimes. It also provides the first documentation of the thirty-four-year history of Sybil Brand Institute, Los Angeles' former women's jail. In a time and place where drug war policies target people of color and their communities, drug-addicted Chicanas are caught up in an endless cycle of police abuse, arrest, and incarceration. They feel the impact of mandatory sentencing laws, failing social services and endemic poverty, violence, racism, and gender discrimination. The women in this book frankly discuss not only their jail experiences, but also their family histories, involvement with gangs, addiction to drugs, encounters with the juvenile and adult criminal justice systems, and their successful and unsuccessful attempts to recover from addiction and reconstitute fractured families. The Chicanas' stories underscore the amazing resilience and determination that have allowed many of the women to break the cycle of abuse. Díaz-Cotto also makes policy recommendations for those who come in contact with Chicanas/Latinas caught in the criminal justice system. 606 $aWomen prisoners$zCalifornia 606 $aFemale offenders$zCalifornia 606 $aMexican American women$zCalifornia$vBiography 606 $aMexican American women$zCalifornia$xSocial conditions 615 0$aWomen prisoners 615 0$aFemale offenders 615 0$aMexican American women 615 0$aMexican American women$xSocial conditions. 676 $a365/.43092368720794 700 $aDi?az-Cotto$b Juanita$f1953-$01545161 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787447803321 996 $aChicana lives and criminal justice$93799955 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03319nam 22006492 450 001 9910823470703321 005 20151005020623.0 010 $a1-316-10155-X 010 $a1-107-38700-0 010 $a1-107-29988-8 010 $a1-107-41468-7 010 $a1-107-39073-7 010 $a1-107-39553-4 010 $a1-107-38781-7 010 $a1-107-38430-3 010 $a1-139-19701-0 035 $a(CKB)2670000000558357 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001290905 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11704334 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001290905 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11245132 035 $a(PQKB)10972133 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1701873 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1701873 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10878295 035 $a(OCoLC)881416268 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9781139197014 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000558357 100 $a20111109d2012|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe British Isles $ea history of four nations /$fHugh Kearney$b[electronic resource] 205 $aSecond edition. 210 1$aCambridge :$cCambridge University Press,$d2012. 215 $a1 online resource (xvii, 362 pages) $cdigital, PDF file(s) 225 1 $aCanto classics 300 $aTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). 311 $a1-107-62389-8 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (pages 325-340) and index. 327 $a1.

Post-imperial Britain: post-nationalist Ireland. 330 $aHugh Kearney's classic account of the history of the British Isles from pre-Roman times to the present is distinguished by its treatment of English history as part of a wider 'history of four nations'. Not only focusing on England, it attempts to deal with the histories of Wales, Ireland and Scotland in their own terms, whilst recognising that they too have political, religious and cultural divides. This new edition endeavours to recognise and examine contemporary multi-ethnic Britain and its implications for 'four-nations' history, making it an invaluable case study for European nationhood of the past and present. Thoroughly updated throughout to take into account recent social, political and cultural changes within Britain and examine the rise of multi-ethnic Britain, this revised edition also contains a completely new set of illustrations, including sixteen maps. 410 0$aCanto classics. 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aIreland$xHistory 607 $aWales$xHistory 607 $aScotland$xHistory 676 $a941 700 $aKearney$b Hugh F.$f1924-$0211026 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823470703321 996 $aThe British Isles$93941300 997 $aUNINA
