Silent Choices is about abortion and its impact on the lives of African American women. From African Americans' cautious involvement with Margaret Sanger during the early birth control movement to black nationalists and civil rights activists who staunchly opposed abortion (or stayed silent on the issue), Silent Choices examines the juxtaposition of race and reproductive politics. Three black women also share their stories of the abortions they had.
