Title: Reproductive Injustice Author: Dána-Ain Davis Narrator: Allyson Johnson Format: mp3 Length: 8 hrs and 28 mins Release date: 03-16-21 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 19 ratings Genres: Racism & Discrimination Publisher's Summary: Black women have higher rates of premature birth than other women in America. This cannot be simply explained by economic factors, with poorer women lacking resources or access to care. Even professional, middle-class Black women are at a much higher risk of premature birth than low-income White women in the United States. Dána-Ain Davis looks into this phenomenon, placing racial differences in birth outcomes into a historical context, revealing that ideas about reproduction and race today have been influenced by the legacy of ideas which developed during the era of slavery.
