Description

Bill Monaghan and John "J.D." Davis moderate a roundtable discussion about sexual assault in prison. The panelists are Ed Morris, Bob Martin and David Rothenberg of the Fortune Society. Rothenberg had recently authored (May 1976) a cover story for The Advocate about homosexual prison rape. They discuss sex as a tool of power to establish order in prisons, how the issue of prison rape has come under increased scrutiny of late, the caste system in prisons, the framing of the issue as an erotic one in mass media, and what the Fortune Society is doing to advocate for prisoners.
