Amber Thurman, Candi Miller, Porsha Ngumezi, Josseli Barnica, and Neveah Crain highlight the tragic outcomes of restrictive abortion bans post-Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. Their stories underscore the need to shift away from viewing medical institutions as the only sources of reproductive care. The Afiya Center's Livable Black Futures Collective advocates for community-based knowledge through a Reproductive Justice storytelling framework. By emphasizing the injustices faced by Black women and birthing people, these narratives aim to reclaim bodily autonomy, dismantle stigma, and foster resilience, ultimately serving as a powerful catalyst for collective healing and activism against systemic oppression.
安珀·瑟曼、坎迪·米勒、波莎·恩古梅齐、乔塞利·巴尔尼卡和内维娅·克莱恩强调了在多布斯诉杰克逊妇女健康组织案之后，限制性堕胎禁令所带来的悲惨后果。她们的故事凸显了有必要改变将医疗机构视为生殖保健唯一来源的观念。阿菲亚中心的“宜居黑人未来集体”通过生殖正义叙事框架倡导基于社区的知识。通过强调黑人女性和分娩者所面临的不公正，这些叙事旨在夺回身体自主权、消除耻辱感并培养复原力，最终成为集体疗愈和反对系统性压迫行动主义的有力催化剂。
