A Texas Tech instructor was pressured not to say "disparity" in their classroom. The reproductive justice implications are serious. “educational institutions have real power to shape ideas, rhetoric, and action around reproductive issues—and the recent Texas Tech lawsuit demonstrates that the fight to harness that power for good is far from over. What we see now, though less explicitly, contains the same sentiment we saw a century ago: reproductive liberty belongs to a privileged few while the reproductive oppression that other groups experience remains systematically ignored by and therefore reinforced by some educational institutions.” You can read more about the issue here, through a reproductive justice lens (which is always at the forefront of my reporting!) https://thefifthtenet.substack.com/p/texas-tech-university-sued-for-extraordinary submitted by /u/sellm3 [link] [comments]
