Orange is the New Black and New Perspectives on the Women in Prison Genre
Friday 5 June 2015
Edinburgh Napier University, Edinburgh, Scotland
Keynote Speaker:
Professor Diane Negra (University College Dublin)
Aone-day conference framed around discussions of the Netflix original series Orange is the New Black (2013-). The series has received a great deal of critical media attention, particularly surrounding its representation of sexualities and women of colour. The series is the most recent in a sequence of TV programmes and feature films exploring women’s incarceration in a popular format. Considered as part of the ‘women in prison’ genre, the show upholds certain stereotypes while simultaneously using the genre framework to explore new territory. This conference aims to open up scholarly debates surrounding OITNB and to further contextualise it alongside other representations of women in prison from a multidisciplinary range of perspectives.
