Decades after abortion was legalized and decriminalized in Canada, the US, and the UK, why are we still fighting for reproductive rights?

Engaging with the reproductive justice framework advanced by women of colour, the book presents the fight for reproductive rights as contingent with other social justice issues, and forces us to grapple with the weaknesses of the feminist and reproductive rights movement as it exists.Accessible and engaging, this book gives readers the tools to understand-and fight against-contemporary threats to our reproductive rights. Part of the Fired Up series for young adults.
