A Culturally-Centered and Intersectional Approach to Reproductive
Justice investigates and challenges assumptions and pre-existing
notions regarding reproductive justice by grounding this work in a
more inclusive and culturally informed context. Throughout history,
contributors argue, reproductive justice movements have centered
white, cisgendered, and non-disabled women in the West. Along with
women in the Global South being underrepresented in scholarship,
research tends to focus only on the abuses they have suffered,
rather than delving deeper into issues of structures, barriers, or
agency. Each chapter is written from an autoethnographic
perspective to unpack the contributors’ challenges with achieving
reproductive justice for themselves and their respective
communities. Ultimately, this book asserts that when different
facets of reproductive justice are presented in the form of
narrative self-reflexivity, readers find a space to safely evaluate
their positionality within the larger reproductive justice movement
while simultaneously acknowledging the complexity of the movement
itself. Scholars of communication, health, and women’s and gender
studies will find this book of particular interest.
