Hi Andrea,

I never actually collected demographic data from my students regarding
race and ethnicity, so I don't think I can accurately answer this.  I'd
only be going based on my visual perceptions, and since when folks meet
me they perceive me to be a female, white, American, and I'm not I don't
want to do that to my students. I will say this though based entirely on
my visual perceptions, I had students who I would guess would
self-identify as "black," "white," and "Latina."  Sorry not to be able
to give you exact statistics in this case.

Best,
Dominique

Hello dominique,

Thank you for your reply to my first question, here is another.

Do your female prisoners reflect the figures in the non-incarcerated 
population as regards race, ethnicity?

Thanks.

Andrea
