Join us for an extraordinary gathering brought to you by the California Black Women's Health Project in collaboration with Beauty for Ashes Wellness. On October 7, 2023 we are excited to host Dr. DeShawn Taylor and discuss her new book "Undue Burden: A Black Woman Physician on Being Christian and Pro-Abortion in the Reproductive Justice Movement.”
Dr. Taylor, MD MSc, is an award-winning Gynecologist, Family Planning Specialist, Gender Affirming Care Provider, and Reproductive Justice Activist, whose work advances reproductive health care access through direct services, education and training, advocacy, and leadership. In her new book “Undue Burden: A Black Woman Physician on Being Christian and Pro-Abortion in the Reproductive Justice Movement,” which serves as the focal point of our conversation, Dr. Taylor explores the intricacies where faith, extremism, race, gender, policy, reproductive justice and freedom all intersect. Through a physician's lens, Dr. Taylor offers insightful exploration as she sheds light on the multifaceted challenges experienced in our current climate. This discussion provides a safe space to broaden our perspectives and engage meaningfully with our community. Don't miss this chance to be a part of an inspiring conversation that transcends boundaries and fosters greater understanding. Join us on for this discussion October 7, 2023 at Sip & Sonder.
