Coercion: Surviving and Resisting Abortion Bans

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, the horrors inflicted by abortion bans began immediately and haven’t stopped. These laws have become a tool for abusers, as pregnant people face legal harassment, reproductive coercion, and life-threatening medical trauma.

Through biting analysis, Kylie Cheung argues that these are not unintended consequences but deliberate acts of state violence against women and pregnant people within a system where certain lives are designated as expendable.

This book is for everyone coming to terms with these realities amid the ongoing, alarming rollback of our bodily autonomy.
