Letters from 3 brave female inmates held captive amongst violent men at Edna Mahan Women’s Prison. Prompted by the ACLU, the NJ DOC allows for males to self-ID as “trans women” & gain access their target for sexual exploitation: vulnerable captive women. These are their cries/🧵
2/ The first letter is from mother and grandmother, Dawn Jackson, serving a 30 yr prison sentence at Edna Mahan for defensively killing her step grandfather after enduring years of his sexual abuse. She lives in fear of the violent men brought into the prison: #KPSS #GetMenOUT 
3/ This electronic letter is from an anonymous female Edna Mahan women’s prison inmate who understands the danger that speaking out will put her in, but wants people to know how they feel:
#GetMenOUT #KPSS
#GetMenOUT #KPSS

Horsey, K., ‘Surrogacy in the UK: Myth busting and reform’ Report of the Surrogacy UK Working Group on Surrogacy Law Reform (Surrogacy UK, November 2015) "29. (27.1%) of these received less than £10,000, while 73 (68.2%) received £10-15,000 and five (4.7%) received £15-20,000."
