Tamanika Ferguson

Ferguson studies the social and intellectual thought of incarcerated women as cultural and political intervention and as a legitimate knowledge source that can transform structural change in prison and criminal policy reforms. Ferguson is an active member of CCWP and sits on the Fire Inside Newsletter editorial committee. She is also working with a group of amazing public opinion leaders, activists, journalists, and writing coaches at The OpEd Project and Equality Now with the mission to change who writes history and advance the human and civil rights of women and girls, the world over.
