Recenzii
"[The] book's great strength lies in making visible the evocative power of Chuukese women’s voices, experiences, and everyday encounters to allow each of us to comprehend their perspectives as we seek to reorder our lives in pursuit of a more just world."
"Based in deep ethnographic research, Smith's essential book challenges us to understand Chuukese women's poor reproductive health chances as a result of a broad set of imperial forces. We learn so much from this book about the gender and health damages the U.S. empire has wrought in Guam, Chuuk, and elsewhere in Micronesia."
"Written with clarity, compassion, and theoretical acuity, Forgotten Bodies describes the reproductive health disparities of Micronesian migrant women in Guam, set within wider stories of imperialism, colonialism, and racism. This book will be valuable to students of decolonizing anthropology and Pacific Studies, to health practitioners committed to more equitable and adequate care, and to anyone who cares about the lives, struggles, and strengths of Chuukese women.

Descriere
Women from Chuuk, Federated States of Micronesia move to Guam, U.S. for several reasons, including access to better healthcare. Yet, they suffer disproportionately poor reproductive health outcomes in Guam. Forgotten Bodies illuminates how benign neglect, imperial citizenship, transnational migration, and gender inequities intersect, cohere, and compound to stratify Chuukese women’s reproductive health.
