GALACTAGOGUE STUDY: IN SECURITY
THE ARTIST ENVISIONS THE ABUNDANT POSSIBILITIES OF WHAT A TRULY INTERSECTIONAL OPPORTUNITY TO BIRTH AND FAMILY PLANNING WOULD BE IF ADDRESSED AT THE ROOT ISSUES
"THE VAST MAJORITY OF RESOURCES ON PREGNANCY AND MOTHERHOOD DIRECT OUR EYES AND MINDS TO ISSUES THAT DON'T ACTUALLY MATTER IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS. THE PROBLEMS WE FACE ARE MUCH BIGGER: A CULTURE IN WHICH MEN HOLD NEARLY ALL OF THE LEGAL AND ECONOMIC POWER; A SOCIETY IN WHICH WHITENESS IS CONSIDERED THE NORM AND SUPERIOR TO OTHER RACES AND CULTURES; AN ECONOMIC SYSTEM THAT RELIES ON, BUT DOES NOT ADEQUATELY VALUE, DOMESTIC WORK THAT IS PERFORMED OVERWHELMINGLY BY WOMEN (OR, IF YOU PREFER: PATRIARCHY, WHITE SUPREMACY, AND AMERICAN CAPITALISM). IT'S NOT WHAT MANY PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR, BUT IT IS OUR REALITY: THERE AREN'T ANY EASY ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ABOUT PREGNANCY - THEY ARE ALL POLITICAL. TO DENY THIS IS A LUXURY WE CAN'T AFFORD."
