Assisted reproduction clinics have seen a sharp rise in the number of Black folks seeking their services during the pandemic. But many face a barrier even before pregnancy that they weren't even aware of: a shortage of Black sperm donors. For many, having a Black donor is a primary concern in building families that reflect their cultures and identities. And while the best current scientific evidence indicates there's no genetic basis for the idea of race, that doesn't mean it doesn't matter to people when they are building their families — especially when they're using assisted reproductive technologies. We speak with Dr. Camisha Russell, associate professor of philosophy at the University of Oregon and author of the book “The Assisted Reproduction of Race.” We're also joined by Regina Townsend, founder of The Broken Brown Egg, an infertility support community for Black individuals and families. And, we hear from a Black man who donated sperm on what creating a Black family means to him. For full transcript, see above.

Welcome back, tributes! On this week's episode we had the honor of talking with Dr. Camisha Russell. Dr. Russell is an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Oregon, a professor of the course 'The Hunger Games and Social Philosophy". In the episode, we discuss how the trilogy can lead conversations on social theories and practices and reflect on current society and world situations. Dr. Russell discusses Katniss and care ethics, racial justice and inequality, and ethics in revolutionary practices. This episode is unlike any other we've had, and we were so grateful to have Dr. Russell on this episode. Please share your thoughts or any questions for Dr. Russell with us on our social media. On a separate note, we have "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes" movie news! The movie's release date was announced this week at CinemaCon; the film will be released to the U.S. on November 17, 2023! Join us for Tribute Talk to talk all about our plans to camp out at the premiere. You can also stream all of our Catching Fire discussions wherever you stream podcasts! Here are some links to the sources Dr. Russell lists in her course: Harlan County U.S.A documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074605/ The Hunger Games and Philosophy A Critique of Pure Treason: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/10776887-the-hunger-games-and-philosophy

In this episode we talk with Camisha Russell, Assistant Professor in Philosophy at University of Oregon & author of The Assisted Reproduction of Race, about histories of race and their continued influence in reproductive medicine and technologies. We discuss how critical philosophy of race can help bioethical analyses of health inequalities and racial injustices in reproductive medicine and society in general. ReferencesGattaca Doctors VisitRussell, Camisha.

Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) such as in vitro fertilization and surrogacy have been critically examined within philosophy, particularly by feminists and bioethicists, but the role of race—both in how the technologies are used and in the effects that they are having—has received less attention.  In The Assisted Reproduction of Race (Indiana University Press, 2018), Camisha Russell undertakes this critical analysis.  While there is a robust scientific consensus that there is no meaningful genetic basis for race, Russell’s analysis of the role of race in ARTs reveals that when it comes to producing kinship, race is still doing a great deal of work. Further, by arguing that race itself is a technology, Russell shows how race is both produced and productive, historically, as well as in everyday practices, techniques, and choices.  While this analysis focuses on what race does in the contemporary realm of ARTS, it illuminates the role of race, in the past and now, in constructing social reality.

Camisha Russell, assistant professor of Philosophy at the University of Oregon, discusses her book The Assisted Reproduction of Race, which examines how concepts of race are reinforced by reproductive technologies. Russell talks about how race is a social construct and asks, "what does the idea of race do?" and posits that race is a technology (something made and used).
