Killing the Black Body: Race, Reproduction, and the Meaning of Liberty by Dorothy Roberts
5.0
Highly recommend reading -- learned so much about reproductive justice and how the health care system, government, and academic institutions that supported eugenicists and other white supremacists have shaped the way we view reproductive health care, in particular for Black women.
I know there is probably so much more to update on since this book was published in 1997, but as a young(er) advocate in the reproductive justice space, this book was insightful and provided so much historical, social, cultural, and political context to the repro justice landscape today.
