First year (Fr or Soph) Sub-title: An Introduction to Birth Justice and Equity-Reflecting on Stories of How We are Born

In this course we will reflect on what it looks like to give birth in the United States. We will examine how and why people are not necessarily guaranteed the same quality birth experience or the same chances of survival.
