Someone’s Daughter: Reframing the Way You See Justice

We are fundraising to publish The Book, a monograph to accompany Someone’s Daughter. It contains all the photographs and essays and stories by many of the women involved including women with experience of the justice system, prison leavers and law makers. This important cultural artefact is a campaigning tool and a memory capsule that tells the stories of the women involved in the exhibition, through their own words and the lenses of the world’s leading photographers. https://youtube.com/embed/N6p6SlhGJdg?rel=0&showinfo=0&start=0

The Book The State of Justice told by Women

The Book serves as a cultural artefact, a snapshot of the state of our justice system, at an important time in England’s history as the reverberations of Brexit are felt and as the country crawls back from a crippling pandemic. 

We want The Book to be available in every prison library and sent to every sitting MP in Westminster so they can see and understand the effects of mass incarceration of women, who present no risk to themselves or to society. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and millions and millions of words have been written about penal reform for women, yet little change is evidenced. Your funding will help us get these portraits into the heart of our democracy to change the way people see and experience justice. 

The Book is written and it includes essays and written pieces by Helena Kennedy QC, Baroness Brenda Hale, Rachel Ara, Bianca Jagger, Amelia Troubridge, Caitlin Davies, Carol-Allen Storey, Jennie Baptiste, Jen Reid and women with lived experiences in the Criminal Justice System.

Your support and contributions will enable us to print the Book and send it to every sitting MP to educate them. We want to send the book to every prison library and MP to campaign for women in the criminal justice system. Email your MP’s name and constituency details to us at admin@theviewmagazine.org when you have donated £20 or more.
