Notes:
VICTORIA LAW:
– Violence Against Women Act (1994) resulted in more police more punitive sentencing in an attempt to reduce domestic violence
– carceral feminism reigns in the feminist movement – grants the nation state and legal system power over handling violence against women. in the same way that feminism is often code for white feminism or cis feminism its also code for carceral feminism

– relies on criminalized response
– prioritizes interpersonal violence over state violence
