Weber Prize 2021, Western History Association W. Turrentine Jackson Prize 2021, Western History AssociationTiny You tells the story of one of the most successful political movements of the twentieth century: the grassroots campaign against legalized abortion. While Americans have rapidly changed their minds about sex education, pornography, arts funding, gay teachers, and ultimately gay marriage, opposition to legalized abortion has only grown. As other socially conservative movements have lost young activists, the pro-life movement has successfully recruited more young people to its cause. Jennifer L. Holland explores why abortion dominates conservative politics like no other cultural issue. Looking at anti-abortion movements in four western states since the 1960sturning to the fetal pins passed around church services, the graphic images exchanged between friends, and the fetus dolls given to children in schoolshe argues that activists made fetal life feel personal to many Americans. Pro-life activists persuaded people to see themselves in the pins, images, and dolls they held in their hands and made the fight against abortion the primary bread-and-butter issue for social conservatives. Holland ultimately demonstrates that the success of the pro-life movement lies in the borrowed logic and emotional power of leftist activism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Holland’s work is full of both brand-new insights and sideways confirmation of aspects of the history of reproductive rights that a few experts have previously brought to light. . . . a remarkable study.\" * California History *\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eTiny You\u003c\/i\u003e is now required reading for those seeking to understand the incremental losses of bodily autonomy in a dying democracy.\" * Pacific Historical Review *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e PART ONE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1 • Rolling across Party Lines\u003cbr\u003e 2 • Imagining Life\u003cbr\u003e 3 • Claiming Religion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e PART TWO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 4 • Redefining Women’s Rights\u003cbr\u003e 5 • Politicizing the Young\u003cbr\u003e 6 • Making Family Values\u003cbr\u003e Conclusion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Index","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49402896482647,"sku":"9780520295865","price":64.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780520295865.jpg?v=1730481800","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/tiny-you-a-western-history-of-the-antiabortion-movement-9780520295865","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
