What's After Good?: The Burden of Post-Incarceration Life

Review 1 of "Socialization across the three stages of the Correctional Service of Canada’s correctional officer training program: An ethnographic study"

“…Whilst I understand that this method of analysis does not involve creating coding schemes or applying mechanical steps, there will have been a process by which you moved from data/experience to insights. Recent work in the journal typically provides some overview of this movement (see for example Aujla, 2021or Williams & Rumpf, 2020. Outlining and justifying these series of moves will aid clarity, transparency, and a basis for other researchers to follow suit or critique.…”

More recently, multimethod and qualitative research has been conducted, aimed at understanding subjective experiences of re‐entry (Andersen et al., 2020; Lindsay, 2021; Pękala‐Wojciechowska et al., 2021; Sinko et al., 2020; Williams & Rumpf, 2020); however, it remains wanting. Literature in this area often explores experiences of stigma and the negative outcomes associated.…”

A phenomenological analysis of invisibility syndrome in formerly incarcerated Black men

“…Given incarceration's highly punitive nature, enormous numbers of Black men have incurred physical and emotional harm (Assari et al., 2017) therefrom. In addition, Black men continue to experience racial microaggressions and collateral consequences due to their incarceration history (Assari et al., 2017; Tyner & Fry, 2020; Williams & Rumpf, 2020). Collateral consequences are denoted as invisible sanctions (i.e., limited access to public benefits) “that emerge automatically at the onset of a criminal conviction” (Tyner & Fry, 2020, p. 360).…”
