What if the story you’ve been told about “overpopulation” is a lie?

Historian Dr. Lina-Maria Murillo, author of Fighting for Control: Power, Reproductive Care, and Race in the U.S.–Mexico Borderlands, joins Saadia Khan to unravel a century of reproductive politics that have shaped how we talk about abortion, contraception, and “desirability.” The episode exposes how eugenics quietly evolved into modern population-control policies and why blaming poor folks for “too many children” masks the real crisis: resource hoarding and racial capitalism.

From Mexican border clinics to U.S. legislative battles, this conversation challenges everything we think we know about reproductive rights. It’s uncomfortable, revelatory, and necessary.

Listen to understand why true reproductive justice means more than the right not to have children; it means the right to raise them in safety, dignity, and care.
