Explores the treatment of civil rights activists inside southern US jails and the different responses that civil rights organisations had to mass arrest and imprisonment. While some found imprisonment to be an energising or inspiring experience, others struggled to find a positive value. By drawing together the narratives of individuals and organisations, Zoe Colley places imprisonment at the forefront of civil rights history and shows how attitudes toward arrest continue to impact contemporary society.
