Is this what Trump Means by "Playing the Woman Card?"
Talk about playing the "woman card."
If that means that Hillary Clinton will bring her tremendous focus, passion, intelligence to bear on problems like this that sexiest pigs like Donald Trump would barely even acknowledge, let alone address, then I am all for it.
She will make a tremendous president and we need to do everything in our power to see that she is elected.
Mass incarceration has torn families apart, impoverished communities, and kept too many Americans from living up to their God-given potential. But mass incarceration's impact on women and their families has been particularly acute and it doesn't get the attention it deserves. I learned about Alice and Tanya's experiences through a nonprofit organization that works with women in the justice system. (Both women's names have been changed to protect their privacy.)
The United States' prison and jail population includes 215,000 women nearly one-third of all female prisoners worldwide, and 800% more women than were in prison four decades ago. African-American women are more than twice as likely to be in prison than white women.
But women aren't the only ones affected when they are sent to prison. The high number of women in prison and the long lengths of their sentences destabilizes families and communities, especially their children. Since 1991, the number of children with a mother in prison has more than doubled. Mothers in prison are five times more likely than fathers in prison to have to put their children in foster care while they serve their sentences.
