Six By Ten

An estimated 80,000 Americans are held in solitary confinement in prisons across the US. Solitary confinement, often in cells no bigger than six-by-ten-feet, means twenty-four hours per day with little or no meaningful human contact. Six By Ten explores the mental, physical, and spiritual impacts of America's widespread embrace of solitary confinement, as told through the first-person narratives of individuals subjected to the practice, family members on the outside, and corrections officers.
