A unique prison crisis: “Women in need, America's forgotten women”

The United States of America is home to 30 percent of the world’s female jail population. Public Senate will be airing the documentary Women in Pain, the Forgotten of America.

which was directed by Brice Lambert and will be televised this coming Friday, April 5 in the second part of the evening. This video is a surgical deciphering of a unique issue that was formed from a system that is gravely failing.

Currently, I am a prisoner. My name has been shattered, stolen, and forgotten. This is the number that I will carry with me for the rest of my life: 678712, which is the number of one error. In the beginning of the documentary directed by Brice Lambert, Angelina Jolie reads a poem that she has written or written herself.

She is one among the more than 230,000 women who are currently incarcerated in the United States. She is currently being held at Mabel Bassett Prison in McLoud, Oklahoma. This is the category of jail population that is rising at the fastest rate in the country, yet the number of male inmates is dropping. Seven times more numerous than thirty-five years ago, this category of prison population is growing at the fastest rate.

Drawing on the state of Oklahoma as an example, this documentary is sensitive without becoming complacent, and it provides a comprehensive overview of a situation that is both complicated and occasionally absurd. Women are incarcerated in this state for acts of violence committed by their spouse against their children, and the duration of their incarceration can sometimes exceed that of their children. There are also women who are sentenced to prison for putting their unborn child in danger because they sought treatment for their addiction while they were pregnant in the hospital.

For the purposes of this program, everything revolves on the first individuals who are involved; it is their experience that directs the reflection, and their testimonies that decide the structure of the documentary. They represent the truth that lies behind the numbers, and the words that they speak make it possible to determine the factors that led to the failure of the system and the societal implications that resulted from it. By revolving around their own experiences and the experiences of their loved ones, Brice Lambert is able to present a compelling contrast, providing a voice to those who advocate for an extremely coercive system as well as those who are opposed to it.

Most importantly, in spite of the fact that the picture is gloomy, the filmmaker of the documentary investigates potential answers. A number of players, such as Judge Dawn Moody, for instance, advocate for the provision of care, which is less expensive (both socially and economically) than the practice of incarcerating individuals repeatedly. The documentary provides a comprehensive and pertinent summary of this one-of-a-kind problem that is occurring all across the world in a minute and a half.

For a significant portion of the 20th century in the United States, a government program that was not well recognized but was prevalent locked people up without trials for the sole reason that they had sexually transmitted illnesses. After being locked up, they were then forced to undergo “treatments” that were harmful and deadly However, if they were females, that is.

As an illustration, consider the approximately twenty-dozen women who were apprehended by law enforcement on a single day in Sacramento, California, in the year 1919. One of them was Margaret Hennessey, who was taken into custody while being accompanied by her sister on their way to the meat market. On the morning of February 25, a clear winter morning, there was a light breeze, and the temperature was climbing into the 40s or 50s.

Hennessey, who resided in Richmond, California with her husband, H.J., who was a foreman at Standard Oil, had been staying in town in order to recover from influenza at the residence of her sister, who was only referred to as Mrs. M in the press accounts.

This is Bradich. The two women were accosted by Officer Ryan and other members of Sacramento’s “morals squad” while they were walking to the market. This “morals squad” was founded that very morning with the mission of ridding the city of vice and immorality. The two women who were alone were informed by the police that they were about to be arrested as “suspicious characters.”

Mrs. Hennessey made an effort to provide answers to the questions of who she was and why she was in Sacramento. She made the offer to provide her identification to the officers. According to her statement to the officers, her son, who was six years old at the time, was attending school in a local convent, and if she was detained, someone would be responsible for his care.

Later on, Hennessey stated to the press that the officers “did not pay any attention to us, but they did take my sister and I to the hospital.” The “Canary Cottage,” which was the name of the city’s isolation hospital, was where Hennessey and Bradich were taken after being delivered by the morals squad. For the purpose of determining whether or not the two women had sexually transmitted infections (STIs), the doctor examined their genitalia by prodding and prodding them.

At the hospital, I was made to submit to an examination as if I were one of the most humiliated women in the world. I was made to feel as like I was being evaluated. In an interview with the local press, Mrs. Hennessey stated, “I want to say that I have never been so humiliated in my entire life.” It is important to me to protect my reputation, and I will do everything in my power to do so.

It is not at all rare for Margaret Hennessey to have had this experience. Her detention was carried out in accordance with a program that she had most likely never heard of before: the “American Plan.” In the United States, tens of thousands, and maybe hundreds of thousands, of women were imprisoned and subjected to forcible testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) between the years 1910 and 1950, and in some locations, even into the 1960s and 1970s.

The program was designed after other programs that were identical to it that were implemented in Europe. In those programs, authorities would follow “suspicious” women and then arrest, test, and imprison them.

If the ladies tested positive, the United States government would put them up in prisons without providing them with any form of due process. The duration of women’s forced imprisonment could range anywhere from a few days to many months, despite the fact that many documents of the practice have been lost or destroyed since its inception.

While the ladies were being treated for syphilis in these hospitals, records show that they were frequently injected with mercury and made to consume medications containing arsenic. These were the most typical treatments for syphilis during the early part of the century. In the event that these ladies disobeyed or failed to demonstrate “proper” ladylike reverence, they were subject to physical punishments such as beatings, being doused with cold water, being placed in solitary confinement, or even being sterilized.
