COMMUNITY REVIEWS

submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on June 14, 2014, 8:15pm
As Piper's misadventures in a federal prison continue the viewer sees more of the violence of the system that is a reality of our justice system today.
Guards abuse, exploit and take advantage of inmates. They allow inmates to hurt and exploit each other. The system separates parents from children (except when they meet up in prison).
Despite the excessive nudity and sex, the drama does show the inmates as real people leading the viewer to feel compassion for them. The show also depicts quite a diverse population: people of numerous races, religions, and social classes (although most from low-income families), and sexual orientations. The characters speak numerous languages, including Spanish, French and Russian. At least two of the inmates are immigrants and several are gay or bisexual. The show includes a transgender actress, Laverne Cox, playing a transgender woman sent to prison after being framed by someone who could not accept her transitioning.
