Both readings and the documentary really opened my eyes up to how good I have it here in the United States simply with all the access to resources regarding anything women related or anything about my body like my period. The documentary made me think of Planned Parenthood which is a non profit organization that provides reproductive health care in the United States and globally. If the women in India had a resource like Planned Parenthood I know it would do them so much justice just having the ability to go somewhere to talk to women, get more information about women’s bodies, becoming more informed on your reproductive system, and getting other resources like – pads, birth control, and even abortions. I think overall, women and the control on what to do with our bodies and when to do it has constantly been ruled by people in power who are not even women! Isn’t that insane? I definitely think it is not only insane but incredibly wrong. Both the readings also taught me a lot regarding obsterstic racism and medical oppression; both of which I knew of but never really knew about. The idea that black women are more likely to get c-sections instead of any other race is appalling to me; any woman who gets pregnant has an idea of how they want their birth to be so, walking into a hospital on the most special day of your life and getting treated differently because the color of your skin or your race is sickening and goes to show how much work we still have to do throughout society and overall the continued written history we are living through today.
