precarity & pills

We first started working on this project in April 2020, just as the world went into lockdown. We worked with our comrades at Women Help Women to decide on how data would be collected and what the parameters were (within their existing consultation structure).

Data were/are absolutely devastating to read. We were extremely lucky to work with Maria Lewandowska who translated with so much care and thoughtfulness - it has shaped how we approached our corpus.

Thinking with Butler and trying to engage with this idea of liveability (what makes life liveable?) has been a profoundly moving project for me, and one that will continue to shape my thinking on abortion and reproduction.

I am also so grateful to get to think with my wonderful co-authors and researchers - what a community to count as mine.
