Liberating Abortion w/Renee Bracey Sherman

People have been having abortions since the dawn of time, yet Black people's access and affirming care is continuously under attack. In Liberating Abor­tion, award-winning abortion activist Renee Bracey Sherman & jour­nalist Regina Mahone illustrate the long racist history that brought us to this mo­ment, uncover the hidden figures who set the foundation that activists and storytell­ers are building on today, and explain how abortion has been and remains essential to the health of our communities.

Liberating Abortion will take you back to the basics of sex education, detailing the traditions of abortion over centuries, while examining how society makes us feel about our experiences. You’ll find rigorous research, never-before-heard stories, and eye-opening interviews with more than fifty peo­ple of color who’ve had abortions, includ­ing activists, actresses, television writers, politicians, and the two Black members of Jane, the Chicago feminist service that provided abortions before Roe.

With poignant storytelling and precise analysis, Liberating Abortion will change how you think about abortion forever.
