In this episode we talk with Camisha Russell, Assistant Professor in Philosophy at University of Oregon & author of The Assisted Reproduction of Race, about histories of race and their continued influence in reproductive medicine and technologies. We discuss how critical philosophy of race can help bioethical analyses of health inequalities and racial injustices in reproductive medicine and society in general.
