A love letter to those who have been minimized and forgotten through a collection of essays that reposition Black women’s intellectual and political work at the center of today’s liberation movements. A vital and galvanizing history of abortion and how its stigma is intrinsically connected to racism and systemic oppression, told from the viewpoint of people of color.
