Orange Is The New Black: 20 Things That Make No Sense About Piper
In 2010, Piper Kerman published her book Orange Is the New Black: My Year In A Women's Prison, describing her experiences at a minimum-security federal prison. That memoir got the attention of Netflix, who decided to take that story and create a TV series based upon it.
The first season of Orange Is the New Black on Netflix premiered in 2013 to both critical and fan acclaim. The series navigated the tricky waters of race relations, problems with the prison system, women's issues, and trans rights. It has brought viewers into the world of Litchfield Penitentiary through the eyes of the main protagonist Piper Chapman. Piper's story is loosely based on Kerman's own experiences, but Netflix seems to have gone out of its way to create a self-absorbed, entitled white woman that many fans just actually hate.
At first, Piper Chapmain was supposed to act as the lens through which viewers saw the prison.
