Tenacious : art & writings by women in prison. Issue 32, Summer/Fall 2014.

How does it feel to know you'll spend the rest of your life in prison? How does a person with celiac navigate prison medical care and food restrictions? How is pregnancy treated (or not treated) in a southern prison? What does a killer look like? Nine women incarcerated across the United States reflect on these questions and share their experiences.

"Tenacious is a zine of art and writings by women incarcerated across the United States. Through essays, articles, poetry and drawing, each woman shares aspects of life behind bars, ranging from medical care (or lack of care), trying to get an education while in prison, sexual harassment by prison staff and general prison conditions, pregnancy and parenting in prison. Tenacious covers subjects like medical care (or lack of care), trying to get an education while in prison, sexual harassment by prison staff and general prison conditions, pregnancy and parenting behind bars."--From POC Zine Project. https://poczineproject.tumblr.com/tenaciouszine
