Alyssa Basmajian & Michele Ko have both written about the abortion doula movement. I talked with them the day after the 2016 U.S. general election about what abortion doulas do, the intersection between the abortion doula movement and reproductive justice, how abortion doula care is stigma-busting, and what surprised each of them about abortion doulaing.<br /> <br />RESOURCES<br />* Michele's Ms. blog "What Being An Abortion Doula Has Taught Me" <a href="http://msmagazine.com/blog/2016/06/07/what-being-an-abortion-doula-has-taught-me/" rel="noopener">http://msmagazine.com/blog/2016/06/07/what-being-an-abortion-doula-has-taught-me/</a><br />* Alyssa's essay "Abortion Doulas: Changing The Narrative" <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19492901.2014.11728432" rel="noopener">https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/19492901.2014.11728432</a><br />* Wesleyan Doula Project <a href="http://www.wesleyandoulaproject.org/" rel="noopener">http://www.wesleyandoulaproject.org/</a><br />* What Is Reproductive Justice?
