Review
"The specific foux of the justice system's influence on black female vulnerablity makes for an unusually exact title which analyzes male violence, penalties for women's actions, and paths which lead to crime. Recommended for anyone studying gender, race, and social influences upon crime."
-The Bookwatch
"Richie' gem of a book, "Compelled to Crime, offers a compelling explanation of how some women end up involved in crime. But the book is rich with much more than criminal justice theory. It is an example of rigorous, high-quality qualitative research, and professional writing which dazzles rather than drones. It's a great read."
