Submitted by Anonymousy on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 3:33pm.question / pregunta:
Some time in the 1980s, women incarcerated in Oregon staged a sit-down demonstration to protest the fact that higher education was available to male prisoners but not female prisoners. As a result of the demonstration, 10 women prisoners were allowed to participate in college courses that had previously only been open to men at Oregon STate Prison.
How would I find media coverage/more information about this demonstration and its results?
