Coercion: Surviving and Resisting Abortion Bans

“Read this book to get informed, stay sane, and learn to fight back” Lizz Winstead, co-creator of The Daily Show and host of Feminist Buzzkills

“A must-read for all who care about bodily autonomy” Renee Bracey Sherman, founder of We Testify and co-author of Liberating Abortion

“An urgent, unforgettable book” Hannah Matthews, author of You or Someone You Love

Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, the horrors inflicted by abortion bans began immediately and haven’t stopped. These laws have become a tool for abusers, as pregnant people face legal harassment, reproductive coercion, and life-threatening medical trauma.

Through biting analysis, Kylie Cheung argues that these are not unintended consequences but deliberate acts of state violence against women and pregnant people within a system where certain lives are designated as expendable.

This book is for everyone coming to terms with these realities amid the ongoing, alarming rollback of our bodily autonomy.

Kylie Cheung is a Brooklyn-based journalist and the author of Survivor Injustice. Her work on reproductive rights and gender-based violence has appeared in Jezebel, Salon, Teen Vogue, and more.
