Essay Style and Structure
1. Reproductive justice. Why should reproductive rights advocates, who are concerned about
abortion access, also be concerned about issues like maternal mortality and coerced sterilization?
You can choose to write in the context of either the United States or Canada. You should be sure to
include both theoretical (reproductive justice, intersectionality) components and empirical
(information, data on maternal mortality and involuntary sterilization, birth alerts) components.
2. Care work. How does policy shape gender politics? Specifically, how do migrant domestic
caregiver programs create and re-create families? How do they distribute power, create power
imbalances, and how are these imbalances resisted in “everyday” ways? In your answer, provide
specific (empirical, information, data-driven) examples, and also situate those examples in the
context of theoretical discussions related to the gender binary, the public- private distinction, and/
or intersectionality.
