""What Happened to Belén is a harrowing and revelatory account of how one woman’s life was turned upside down and how she never stopped fighting for her innocence. Ana Correa poignantly recounts how so many systems failed Belen, the movement that sprung to action to free her, and most importantly, what happened to Belen in Belen’s own words on her own terms. This is an essential read detailing the harms created by police in healthcare settings, abortion stigma, and the criminalization of pregnancy outcomes whether it’s in Argentina or the United States of America."" — Renee Bracey Sherman, abortion activist, founder of We Testify, and author of Liberating Abortion ""As this stirring account shows, there are many women like Belén whose names we don’t know, but whose stories are just as important. An uplifting chronicle of one woman’s fight for justice."" — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""A poignant and inspiring account of women organizing on behalf of women."" — Publishers Weekly ""Ana Correa poignantly recounts how so many systems failed Belén, the movement that sprung to action to free her…an essential read detailing the harms created by police in healthcare settings, abortion stigma, and the criminalization of pregnancy outcomes whether it’s in Argentina or the United States of America."" — Literary Hub ""In this gripping, moving, and personal account, Correa shows how Belén’s experience could happen to any woman but at the same time, we all have the power to raise our collective voices and demand change."" — HipLatina
