Out on the Inside

Transgender women share stories from a California prison

At a men’s prison in Vacaville, California, approximately two dozen transgender women have no choice but to learn to live side by side with more than two thousand cisgender men. Some live in huge dormitories, some in single cells, but all have had to fight to express their identities. Out on the Inside presents a unique set of stories about exploitation of human bodies inside the prison-industrial complex.
