あらすじ・解説
"Merle Hoffman has always known that in a democracy, we each have decision-making power over the fate of our own bodies. She is a national hero for us all.” —Gloria Steinem
In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe V. Wade and a country divided, a pioneer in the pro-choice movement and women’s healthcare offers an unapologetic and authoritative take on abortion—“the front line and the bottom line of women’s freedom and liberty.”
Merle Hoffman has been at the forefront of the reproductive freedom movement since the 1970s. Three years before the Supreme Court legalized abortion through Roe v. Wade, she helped to establish one of the United States’ first abortion centers in Flushing, Queens, and later went on to found Choices, one of the nation’s largest and most comprehensive women’s medical facilities. For the last five decades, Hoffman has been a steadfast warrior and fierce advocate for every woman’s right to choose when and whether or not to be a mother.
Now, amidst the aftermath of the Dobbs Decision, Hoffman has carefully compiled her decades of analysis, research, and experience into a tour de force manifesto that sheds light on the catastrophic repercussions of overturning Roe, and what we must do moving forward to ensure the safety and legality of abortion nationally.
In Choices, Hoffman expresses her views on where we are and what lies ahead. She covers topics ranging from: revamping the healthcare system to support women’s rights; combatting rising authoritarianism; the weaponization of religion; fighting the antis; practicing courage; sabotage from within the movement; and activating the next generation in the fight for reproductive justice.
批評家のレビュー
"A razor-sharp commentary on one of the most pressing civil rights issues of our time. Unapologetic. Provocative. Brave." —Letty Cottin Pogrebin, writer, activist, and cofounding editor of Ms. magazine
"Passionate, sophisticated, philosophical, political, personal—Choices is an essential historical and moral guide to the last fifty years of pro-abortion and anti-abortion activism and legislation. Merle Hoffman is an exuberant and widely-read feminist warrior, a front-line organizer and a first-rate debater, as well as the founder of our country’s largest abortion clinic. Carry this book with you into the future, it will serve you brilliantly." —Phyllis Chesler, cofounder, National Women’s Health Network, and author of twenty books including Women and Madness and Requiem for a Female Serial Killer
"Talk about role models for feminists! For more than fifty years Merle Hoffman, the no-bullshit philosopher/healer/manifester behind Choices Women's Medical Center, has practiced courage, resilience, and readiness for all that abortion-rights foes (and friends) have thrown at her. Choices: A Post-Roe Abortion Rights Manifesto documents the dramatic day-to-day of creating the conditions for women to exercise dominion over their bodies and lives, and revealing the powerful love that drives this work." —Jennifer Baumgardner, author and creator of the I Had an Abortion project
