Prostitution: Where Racism & Sexism Intersect, Vednita Nelson
Prostitution: Where Racism & Sexism Intersect, Vednita Nelson
Michigan Journal of Gender & Law
Black women find themselves in a unique and extremely difficult position in our society. They are forced to deal with the oppression that arises from being Black in a white-supremacist culture and the oppression that arises from being female in a male-supremacist culture. In order to examine the experience of being Black and female, this paper attempts to describe that very difficult, tight space where Black women attempt to survive-that space where racism and sexism intersect.
Strategies Of Connection: Prostitution And Feminist Politics, Margaret A. Baldwin
Strategies Of Connection: Prostitution And Feminist Politics, Margaret A. Baldwin

A feminist political approach to prostitution must begin from these strengths and be tested against the standards set by them. I want to address how taking each of these strengths seriously can create sustained resistance against prostitution.
Prostitution Is Cruelty And Abuse To Women And Children, Susan Kay Hunter
Prostitution Is Cruelty And Abuse To Women And Children, Susan Kay Hunter
Michigan Journal of Gender & Law
Each day I rise to take up the truly good fight to stop the harm to women in prostitution. I long for complete liberation of all oppressed peoples. I passionately believe that the work I do to end prostitution is revolutionary. No one deserves to be used and abused, and that is the universal experience of prostituted women and children. It is also revolutionary work because my freedom as a woman is meaningless so long as some of us can be bought and sold. The giant sex industry grinds on, exploiting and enslaving women, while sexual liberals are well-paid by …

The Conflicts Between Female Inmates' Needs And Prisoners' Goals, Aline L. Mohr
The Conflicts Between Female Inmates' Needs And Prisoners' Goals, Aline L. Mohr
IUSTITIA
A comparison of the purposes behind the existence of male and female institutions reveals that several common goals exist: custody, deterrence, and rehabilitation. An examination of these goals of women's prisons can be best understood in the context of whom they are aimed to serve. If the goals are to serve society alone, then the custody of female offenders is undoubtedly viewed as an accomplished goal, since society is protected and secure from the infliction of criminal acts by these female offenders. However, if the goals are directed at the inmates as well, deterrence of further criminal activity and rehabilitation …

The Scope Of The Mann Act, Ralph W. Aigler
Articles
As was to be expected in view of the well-settled doctrine of the Supreme Court that the constitutional grant of power to regulate interstate commerce includes power of control over transportation of persons as well as property, it was held in Hoke v. United States, 227 U. S. 308, 57 L. Ed. 523, 33 Sup. Ct. 281, that the WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC ACT of 1910 (36 Stat. 825), usually referred to as the MANN ACT, was constitutional. State legislation covering the same ground, it has been held, has been displaced. State v. Harper, 48 Mont. 456, 138 Pac. 495.
