Resumo
This thought piece explores the laboring and birthing experience of two Black reproducing bodies and how they are shaped by obstetric racism. I think through their medical encounters by considering how Black bodies are degraded, ushering them toward mistreatment. The term, Black antibodies is the framing used in this piece as an explanation to understand what produces the traumatic repercussions of racism that are weighed down by disposability, neglect, and medical abuse.
