Description

Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health addresses the sexual and reproductive health needs of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) women from a structural and intersectional perspective. AANHPI women in the United States have often been grouped together due to their race and gender, regardless of their specific communities’ diverse histories with the United States and different educational and economic opportunities. The authors argue that AANHPI women are misunderstood by health professionals and researchers, and foregrounds AANHPI women’s experiences to demonstrate the challenges they face when seeking health care. The book highlights the diversity of AANHPI women by drawing on their first-hand experiences, and argues for the disaggregation of health data on AANHPI women. Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health is of value to college classrooms that address racial disparities, health disparities, and women’s experiences, as well as for health care professionals.

Author Biography:

Karen J. Leong is Associate Professor of History at University of New Mexico. Her research explores what Asian American experiences reveal about the historical dynamic between U.S. national ideologies and the power of self-definition at the intersections of gender, race, class, and sexuality. Kathy Nakagawa is Associate Professor of Asian Pacific American studies in the School of Social Transformation. Her research explores issues of inequity in education including the relationship between families and schools, parent involvement and school reform, charter schools, family literacy programs and racial literacy. Aggie J. Yellow Horse is Associate Professor of Asian Pacific American Studies in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University. Her research focuses on understanding how larger social forces "get under skin" to generate health inequities for racialized and minoritized peoples.
