Women’s Magazine talks to two organizers of the art show "Interrupted Life: Incarcerated Mothers in the United States," currently showing at New College, Rickie Solinger and Helene Vosters, as well as two formerly incarcerated mothers: Angela Wilson, who now teaches theater in jails and prisons, and Linda Walker, an activist with All of Us or None.
And we talk to organizers of the 5th Annual Statewide Women in the Building Trades and Fire Services conference (in Sacramento on June 10-11, 2006) from the group Tradeswoman Inc. This conference is designed for women to network and get support, as well as to learn how to advance their careers and improve conditions for all women and men who work in the building trades and fire service.
