Hello. I think it would be interesting to include a section on LGBTQ+ people of color in prisons. There does not appear to be a section on race and after reading "Short Eyes" I think there are some critical points to add to this page.

Hi there! I'm jealous because I wanted this article, but I'm happy to help suggest edits! I think the introduction of this article could be highly improved by supplementing the couple of sentences about how LGBT+ people are vulnerable in the U.S. due to their identity. I'm not sure if there are any other Wikipedia pages that could be referenced for the sentence, "Historically LGBT people in the U.S. have been socially and economically vulnerable due to their queer status." While it may be common knowledge for some, I think the statement could be supported by rewording and a link to the "LGBT History" Wikipedia page. Additionally, any information about resistance by LGBT people in prison would be useful to add as a sub-section or to the "Support for LGBT people in prison" section.
