1. See Patricia Hill Collins, Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge, Consciousness and the Development of Empowerment (Boston, Massachusetts and London: Unwin Hyman, 1990), for a development of this argument in an American context.
2. Carol Giardina has explored the American context for this in Freedom for Women: Forging the Women’s Liberation Movement 1953–1970 (Gainesville: University of Florida Press, 2010).

5. There is a lot of information about the Depo-Provera campaign, but the centre-spread, ‘Depo-Provera — Ban it!’ Outwrite 2 (April 1982), sums up the problems and aims of the campaign well. Amrit Wilson provides some concrete evidence and accusations in an article entitled ‘Bengali Women and the Health Service’: I have been unable to track this article down, but extracts from it are reproduced in Veronica Ware, Women and the National Front (Birmingham, A.F and R. Publications, 1980), pp. 1–4.
