The Trials of Nina McCall

This audiobook explores the nearly forgotten story of the American Plan, a U.S. government initiative that led to the unjust imprisonment of countless women suspected of promiscuity or sexually transmitted infections from the 1910s to the 1950s. Through the eyes of survivor Nina McCall, it reveals the pain and resistance these women faced, as many fought back against their confinement through riots, escapes, and legal actions. Highlighting the historical control over women's bodies and the implications of this program on modern women's prisons, the narrative also connects to current conversations on women's rights and state power.
