This crucial expansion on social justice discourse explores practical applications for activist thought migrating from the community into the academy.

Expanding the social justice discourse surrounding reproductive rights to include issues of environmental justice, incarceration, poverty, disability, and more, this crucial anthology explores the practical applications for activist thought migrating from the community into the academy.Radical Reproductive Justiceassembles two decades of work initiated by SisterSong Women of Color Health Collective, creators of the human rights-based reproductive justice framework to move beyond polarized pro-choice/pro-life debates. Rooted in Black feminism and built on intersecting identities, this revolutionary framework asserts a woman's right to have children, to not have children, and to parent and provide for the children they have.The book is as revolutionary and revelatory as it is vast.Rewire
