Reproductive Justice: An Introduction

Book • 2017
This book provides a comprehensive yet succinct description of the field of reproductive justice.

Written by Loretta J. Ross and Rickie Solinger, it centers on the lives and lived experiences of women of color and uses a human rights analysis to differentiate reproductive justice from the traditional pro-choice/anti-abortion debates.

The authors argue that reproductive justice is a political movement that encompasses reproductive rights and social justice, highlighting the complex structural obstacles faced by women, particularly those who are low-income, physically disabled, and living in marginalized communities.

The book emphasizes the three primary values of reproductive justice: the right not to have a child, the right to have a child, and the right to parent children in safe and healthy environments.
