Description

Reproductive JusticeĀ is a first-of-its-kind primer that provides a comprehensive yet succinct description of the field. Written by two legendary scholar-activists, Reproductive Justice introduces students to an intersectional analysis of race, class, and gender politics. Loretta J. Ross and Rickie Solinger put the lives and lived experience of women of color at the center of the book and use a human rights analysis to show how the discussion around reproductive justice differs significantly from the pro-choice/anti-abortion debates that have long dominated the headlines and mainstream political conflict.Ā Arguing that reproductive justice is a political movement ofĀ reproductive rights and social justice, the authors illuminate, for example, the complex web of structural obstacles a low-income, physically disabled woman living in West Texas faces as she contemplates her sexual and reproductive intentions. In a period in which womenā€™s reproductive lives are imperiled, Reproductive Justice provides an essential guide to understanding and mobilizing around womenā€™s human rights in the twenty-first century. Ā  Reproductive Justice: A New Vision for the Twenty-First Century publishes works that explore the contours and content of reproductive justice. The series will includeĀ primersĀ intended for students and those new to reproductive justice as well asĀ books of original researchĀ that will further knowledge and impact society.
