oatmeal<p>This is <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> / Racism &amp; coercion: on the Depo-Provera Issue and the Ethiopian community (research)</p><p>I’ve seen this issue discussed here recently. Here’s some context about an historical and ongoing overreach of the state and medical authorities in controlling the fertility of Ethiopian immigrant women, in this case the forced (or “strongly encouraged”) use of the Depo-Provera contraceptive injection, extracted for a recent research paper. </p><p>The issue dates back to the 1990s and continues to the present day. Ethiopian immigrants, who often faced discrimination and were perceived as having higher birth rates, were disproportionately targeted by state-sponsored programs aimed at limiting their family size.</p><p>The Depo-Provera injection, a long-acting reversible contraceptive, was frequently administered to Ethiopian women, often without full informed consent or consideration of their individual needs and desires. This practice was sometimes carried out in the context of family planning programs in absorption centers for new immigrants.</p><p>The Israeli government and medical authorities played a role in perpetuating this issue. While some officials initially denied or downplayed the extent of the problem, investigations and reports revealed a pattern of coercive practices. </p><p>The issue is deeply rooted in racism and discrimination against Ethiopian immigrants, who were often viewed as a "problem", requiring state intervention to control their population growth. This reflects broader societal biases and stereotypes which is not limited to the Ethiopian community, if we limit the discussion to Jewish immigrants. </p><p>The researcher, Chedva Eyal, states that despite some changes in policy, concerns remain about the potential for continued overreach and a lack of respect for the reproductive rights of Ethiopian women.</p><p>Testimonial from the paper: </p><p>[…] For example, the testimony of Shula, who arrived at a Kupat Holim (healthcare clinic) branch in central Israel after giving birth to her son. The nurse insisted she take Depo-Provera, even though Shula did not request contraception and even emphasized that she did not have a partner. Shula, stunned by the intensity of the pressure, decided to go to another clinic to avoid taking contraception she had not asked for at all. The visitor might also have heard the testimony of an Ethiopian woman who refused to take Depo-Provera and was insulted with "retard, foolish," and because of her three pregnancies, she was offered an abortion. The racist and humiliating treatment, along with cases of a lack of medical care infrastructure, indicate a difficult and complex reality that is not reflected in the visitor's inquiry.</p><p>Hebrew <a href="https://www.kriot.co.il/%D7%9C%D7%90-%D7%A0%D7%9E%D7%A6%D7%90%D7%94-%D7%A2%D7%93%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%91%D7%97%D7%99%D7%A0%D7%94-%D7%A8%D7%98%D7%A8%D7%95%D7%A1%D7%A4%D7%A7%D7%98%D7%99%D7%91%D7%99%D7%AA-%D7%A9%D7%9C-%D7%A4%D7%A8/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">kriot.co.il/%D7%9C%D7%90-%D7%A</span><span class="invisible">0%D7%9E%D7%A6%D7%90%D7%94-%D7%A2%D7%93%D7%95%D7%AA-%D7%91%D7%97%D7%99%D7%A0%D7%94-%D7%A8%D7%98%D7%A8%D7%95%D7%A1%D7%A4%D7%A7%D7%98%D7%99%D7%91%D7%99%D7%AA-%D7%A9%D7%9C-%D7%A4%D7%A8/</span></a></p><p>From the abstract: </p><p>The article presents a retrospective account of the Depo-Provera (contraceptive injection) provision scandal to women from the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ethiopian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ethiopian</span></a> community in Israel, which was administered broadly with the aim of reducing fertility. The article follows the social and institutional processes since the scandal was revealed in 2008 and examines the State Comptroller's inquiry in 2015.

Though I think interviews like the most recent one with journalist Tim Alberta on the The “Why Does Everyone Hate Bidenomics?” Edition pod have issues. Issues to do not least of all with <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/class" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>class</span></a>, religion, and worldviews.</p><p>Really, this format isn't sufficient to convey <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ethnographic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ethnographic</span></a> context of who Alberta writes about, and so questions conveying imperatives about what religion 'should' be in relation to politics come across as deeply biased according to the hosts' ideological and material backgrounds. IoW the questions too easily shade into conveying assumptions about secularism and class from Bazelon, Dickerson, and Plotz's points of view.</p><p>Granted, this is a bog-standard media setup to promote Alberta's new book, but this slide from press format to implied judgements is all too common more broadly. I know though that the hosts themselves are keenly aware of the problem of U.S. Media's biases, I just think the structure of the conversation contributes to the problem as much as the intentions of the hosts.</p>
