Summary:
"The history of
abortion
decriminalization and critical advocacy efforts to improve access in
Canada
deserve to be better known. Ordinary people persevered to make
Canada
the most progressive country in the world with respect to
abortion
care. But while
abortion
access is poorly understood, so too are the persistent threats to
reproductive
justice
in this country: sexual violence, gun violence, homophobia and transphobia, criminalization of sex work,
reproductive
oppression of Indigenous women and girls, privatization of fertility
health
services, and the racism and colonialism of policing and the prison system. This beautifully illustrated book tells the empowering true stories behind the struggles for
reproductive
justice
in
Canada
, celebrating past wins and revealing how prison abolitionism is key to the path forward."--Publisher.
