Story
Reproductive Justice is a first-of-its-kind primer that provides a comprehensive yet succinct description of the field. Written by two legendary scholar-activists, Reproductive Justice introduces students to an intersectional analysis of race, class, and gender politics. Loretta J. Ross and Rickie Solinger put the lives and lived experience of women of color at the center of the book and use a human rights analysis to show how the discussion around reproductive justice differs significantly from the pro-choice/anti-abortion debates that have long dominated the headlines.

Story
According to Scripture, do individuals have a right to self-defense, up to and including the use of deadly force? Is there a verse about the Second Amendment? What does the Bible say about guns, or self-defense? What about the consistent teaching and example of Jesus Christ, who advocated for peaceful, non-violent opposition to evil?
