This virtual exhibit from University of Michigan Libraries, which we worked on over ten years ago, has found a new home at https://apps.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/reproductive-justice. Please check it out!

From the summary page: “This exhibit provides a visual narrative of the emergence and antecedents of reproductive justice. Given that women’s lives have never been reducible to one dimension of their reproductive health, this exhibit traces a longer history of reproductive justice, illustrating many experiences, debates, and policies related to pregnancy, birth, contraception, and raising children. Birthing Reproductive Justice also explores the question of who has produced and controlled knowledge about women’s reproductive health and decisions.

“Installed as a companion to the conference Reproductive Justice: Activists, Advocates, and Academics in Ann Arbor, a Michigan Meeting (May 30-31, 2013), this exhibit showcases materials from the rich and extensive [University of Michigan Libraries collections]. Produced and curated by an inter-campus exhibit team, Birthing Reproductive Justice illustrates the stakes — of physical health, mental health, human dignity, and community empowerment — associated with reproductive justice and suggests that research and advocacy can work together.”
