Episode 11: Reproductive Justice

In today’s Global Health TV, we’ll be hearing from activist, academic and feminist Loretta Ross. Loretta Ross was one of the African American women who first coined the term reproductive justice. Her activism began when she was tear-gassed at a demonstration as a first-year student at Howard University in 1970. With a 50-year history of advocacy, Ross has been a leader of many programs, marches and centers that focus on enhancing justice for all. My colleague Autria Godfrey caught up with Professor Ross at the 150th. American Public Health Association Annual meeting in Boston.
