Focusing on pivotal reproductive rights victories in New York, the book explores the movements to decriminalize abortion and combat sterilization abuse, particularly in communities of color. Highlighting diverse activists, including dissident Democrats and Puerto Rican leaders, it reveals their impact on national reproductive justice. With firsthand accounts and unique sources, including contributions from the author's mother and Dr. Helen Rodríguez-Trías, the narrative illustrates how grassroots efforts shaped legal reforms and continue to inspire activism today.
