Criminalization of Black Women's Sexuality (10 окт 1864 г. – 10 март 1873 г.)

Описание:

"Across the country, Black women were arrested and incarcerated for purported prostitution offences at vastly disproportionate rates. Between 1864 and 1873, Black women were 3 percent of the population in Halifax but made up 40 percent of incarcerated women, and a large percentage of these were likely to be serving prostitution-related sentences (fingard 1984 in Backhouse 1985: 401)."
