Both Sides Of The Fence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349582837)

What happens when the line between justice and survival blurs? For twenty years, Diane Ford, known to many as Sister Khadijah A, lived on both sides of the prison fence. As a Black Muslim woman and case manager inside one of America's most notorious correctional facilities, she witnessed the raw truth of incarceration: the corruption, the violence, the humor, and the humanity that exist behind steel doors. Both Sides of the Fence is a gripping memoir that pulls back the curtain on the hidden world of prisons. With unflinching honesty and flashes of dark humor, Ford shares the stories that shaped her of inmates who found redemption, of staff who lost themselves, and of the personal battles she fought to protect her faith, sanity, and family while navigating an environment built on power and survival. Part cautionary tale, part testament of resilience, this book is not just about prison, it's about the choices that lead us there, the people forever changed by it, and the prayers whispered by those desperate to make it out alive. If you've ever wondered what really happens inside America's prison system or how faith and courage can carry someone through it, this unforgettable memoir will open your eyes, challenge your assumptions, and stay with you long after the last page.
