Description

Book Synopsis
At Limestone Prison, the Alabama State Department of Corrections reserves Dorm 16 exclusively for inmates infected with HIV. This book takes readers for a visit to the Limestone infirmary where patients lie chained to beds while insects and rodents run freely through filthy, drafty rooms.

Trade Review
This fresh and original study of the abusive, degrading, and inadequate treatment of segregated prisoners with HIV/AIDS in Alabama's Limestone prison should prick all of our consciences about the horrific consequences of the massive carceral state the United States has built over the last three decades. - Marie Gottschalk, University of Pennsylvania and author of The Prison and the Gallows: The Politics of Mass Incarceration in America
