Abstract:

On September 19, 1922, Beulah M., a thirty-year-old cook, saved a “small child from a vicious cow on Angola.” This event occurred only a few months after her admission to the Louisiana State Penitentiary (LSP), where she was serving a life sentence for alleged murder. The infant was one of the many of the white prison staff's children raised on the penitentiary plantation nestled in a large meander of the Mississippi river. This happy-ending drama featuring a Black woman prisoner and a free white child arose from the “cohabitation” of free white households within the incarcerated population. The incident, quite unexpected in a carceral setting, prompted the penitentiary general manager to place Beulah M. on the “eligibility list” for parole and to grant her “full single good time for meritorious service,” which meant the possibility of an earlier release by a few months. Beulah's action might also have motivated authorities to assign her to be “servant” in the Camp D Captain's house in July 1923, and later to be a nurse in the nine-bedroom “Big House,” occupied by one of the penitentiary staff of higher rank. The peculiar nature of her alleged crime, the beating to death of her seven-year-old Black step-daughter, was apparently not perceived as a deterrent to entrust her to care for white children. Her courageous action toward a white child at Angola might even have been a compelling argument for her early pardon and discharge, which she received only after nine years at Angola, although her plea for a pardon had been rejected at least once before. Beulah M.'s story is the story of a coerced African American domestic laborer in white homes, rewarded for her perceived subservience to the Jim Crow order. It exemplifies one aspect of Black women's experiences of hard labor for the state of Louisiana during the first half of the twentieth century.

Abstract:

Since 1967, prisoners doing hard time at the Louisiana State Penitentiary have volunteered to take part in a rodeo staged for tourists. Few of the inmates have ever ridden a horse before, much less a bucking bronco or bull. Is this spectacle of criminalized bodies per-forming under duress “fun” or public torture?

Abstract:

Abstract As part of the criminal justice reform to reduce prison population, the State of Louisiana undertook an initiative to explore a medical treatment furlough project. The plan was to transition long-term inmates from the prison to long-term care (LTC)). Angola, the largest maximum security prison in the U.S, had over 1000 prisoners 60 years or older. Eighty percent of the prison population is serving a life sentence. Prisoners with significant health and mobility issues were to be considered to be released to off-site facilities with parole supervision. We present lessons learned from exploring all aspects of a possible partnership between a Louisiana long-term care company and the correction department including: conducting site visits at Angola and the long-term care facility; gathering best practice data; exploring a referral process and acuity classification tool; exploring the role of the parole officer; and examining the prison population against the regulations for long-term care facilities from the perspective of the prisoners and current residents. Additional considerations were the impact on the local community and on-going support for services provided, along with staffing, staff training, and security and safety of the facility. After multiple discussions with representative from the Louisiana Department of Health we found the obstacles were too great to implement the program. Exposure to the challenges facing the corrections department and examining how to implement the Act as written was a lesson in the value of viewing an issue from multiple perspectives.

Abstract:

Abstract Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola holds a biannual Arts and Crafts Festival featuring handmade work by inmates. In addition to introducing innovations into vernacular prison art forms, Angola inmates find enormous value in creating works that embody or mimic the everyday images and goods so readily available in the outside world. Such work involves layered acts of appropriation, allowing inmates to sustain a social integrity that, to some degree, neutralizes a status tied solely to incarceration.

Abstract:

The late 1960s was a period of significant upheaval of social, cultural, and scientific norms. The generally accepted notion of mandatory laparotomy for all penetrating abdominal injuries was among those norms being called into question across the country and many advocated expectant management of selected patients presenting with this type of injury. Leaders of the surgical community published opinions on either side of the argument. The house staff at Charity Hospital during this period was among the busiest in the nation in treating these injuries, many of them inmates of the Louisiana State Penitentiary who used self-inflicted stab wounds to the abdomen as a means of temporary respite from the inhumane conditions in the prison. Inspired, in part, by the overabundance of negative laparotomies among this group, F. Carter Nance went on to systematically challenge the standard of care. This effort constitutes one of the major forces for change of the surgical dogma of mandatory laparotomy for all abdominal stab wounds. It is the first major study to show conclusively that delayed laparotomy for perforated viscous was not significantly detrimental and posed less of a risk than unnecessary laparotomy. The circumstances surrounding this initiative constitute a powerful and heretofore unknown chapter in the history of surgical innovation.
