We Are Pregnant with Freedom

Black Feminist Storytelling for Reproductive Justice

Omschrijving

"Stacie Selmon McCormick's unique offering is her focus on storytelling, and specifically on Black women's testimonies about their own reproductive journeys. Her collaboration with the Afiya Center grounds the book in community, weaving together scholarship, theory, and lived experience in service of imagining new futures. A fascinating, engaging, and impeccably researched read."--Dani McClain, author of We Live for the We: The Political Power of Black Motherhood "We Are Pregnant with Freedom is exquisitely multidisciplinary, using a wide variety of cultural texts--from poetry and plays to films and sculptures--to investigate multiple forms of reproductive injustice. Among other subjects, McCormick's work sheds new light on our understanding of disability justice, carcerality, and anti-Blackness and the afterlives of slavery. This fascinating, complex, and truly singular book resists categorization."--Khiara M. Bridges, author of Reproducing Race: An Ethnography of Pregnancy as a Site of Racialization
