Reveals both the promise and the pitfalls associated with a human rights approach to the women of color-focused reproductive rights activism of SisterSong How did reproductive justice—defined as the right to have children, to not have children, and to parent—become recognized as a human rights issue? In Reproductive Rights as Human Rights, Zakiya Luna highlights the often-forgotten activism of women of color who are largely responsible for creating what we now know as the modern-day reproductive justice movement. Focusing on SisterSong, an intersectional reproductive justice organization, Luna shows how, and why, women of color mobilized around reproductive rights in the domestic arena. She examines their key role in re-framing reproductive rights as human rights, raising this set of issues as a priority in the United States, a country hostile to the concept of human rights at home. An indispensable read, Reproductive Rights as Human Rights provides a much-needed intersectional perspective on the modern-day reproductive justice movement.

Are you looking for a beginner guide to learn how to crochet in an easy way?If yes, then keep reading...
Crocheting is a common practice in the current world. It is a process by which a person creates fabrics through interconnecting loops of strands, threads or yarns of different materials. The complex process is made easier by use of a crochet hook. The name crochet hook has been derived from term crochet in the French language. This term is used to refer to a small hook in the French language. The term is also related to a German crock which means a hook. The crochet hook is made of different type of materials. These materials include plastics, woods or metal which are commercially manufactured and products made in workshops of artisans.
In order to clearly see the stitches while you are working, you will need a relatively big crochet hook.
You will work with wool in the beginning, as it is the most suitable material to start with. Later, you will try cotton and other materials. Besides, wool is the material used for many projects. It is a good idea to master wool very well before trying something else.
To find the perfect crocket hook for your hand and your style may take some time. Now, as a beginner, do not think too much about it - finding hooks to make your work easier is enough. What you have to avoid is buying crocket hooks made out of plastic or bamboo because these are not easy to use. Bamboo ones are often inexpensive, made from natural material, and definitely cool. Plastic ones have wonderful color patterns. The problem is that the wool tends to get stuck on them and creates problems you do not need to have at your early stage. The best idea is to buy a plastic coated metal hook - not so fashionable, but easier to use for sure. Neutral and light colors are strongly suggested. Multi-color hooks can confuse you while you are crocheting.
Later, as you get more experienced and you start to use cotton too, metal crochet hooks are ideal. of course, you will build up a wonderful collection of every kind of crochet hooks with time.
This book is addressed to all crochet juveniles with no experience but also to those with a previous background on crocheting.
