Reproductive Justice as Ministry: Navigating Faith in Abortion Care
<p>Dr. DeShawn Taylor (MD) is a physician-activist whose work as an abortion provider in Arizona is deeply informed by her Christian faith. In her recent book, <em>Undue Burden</em>, she describes what it means to be a Black, Pro-Abortion, Christian doctor. She explores myths around pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting and interrogates faith amidst extremism and attacks on reproductive justice within U.S. healthcare systems. She envisions an “empowered future” where all people can access comprehensive, culturally-responsive, and antiracist reproductive health care irrespective of their particular “circumstances or zip code.” </p>
