Incorrigibles is a transmedia public memory project that looks at youth incarceration, specifically as it concerns young women from the early 1900’s to present day. The project plans to use multiple media sharing platforms, social networking, a website and podcasts to collect, display and distribute documents, photographs, films, oral histories, newspaper articles, stories and participatory voices related to the history of incarcerated girls and young women—in particular, young women’s detention facilities and training schools. |
