... that professor Lisa M. Corrigan used prison memoirs from prominent black activists to write about how incarceration impacted the development of the black power movement?
Source: "Examining the iconic prison autobiographies of H. Rap Brown, Mumia Abu-Jamal, and Assata Shakur, the author also conducts rhetorical analyses of these extremely popular though understudied accounts of the Black Power movement to introduce the notion of the "Black Power vernacular" as a term for the prison memoirists' rhetorical innovations" - Relevant Books: Prison Power
ALT1: ... that Lisa M. Corrigan had difficulties publishing her black power movement book because white reviewers believed the movement wasn't important to the discourse of the civil rights movement? Source: "The biggest challenge I faced with Prison Power was the resistance from (white) reviewers who were not convinced that the Black Power movement was an important historical intervention into white discourses about citizenship. Reviewers characterized Black Power leaders as “foolish, “self-centered,” “nihilistic” children, thereby performing the kind of white supremacist argumentation that Prison Power exposes and attempts to undermine. My response was always the same: white critics could not understand Black Power as a movement, Black Power activists as interlocutors, or Black Power memoirs as legitimate subjects and objects of rhetorical and political invention because they didn’t see Black people as legible interpreters of white supremacy." - Prison Power: A New Book on the Role of Prisons in Black Liberation Struggles
