ABSTRACT
In this chapter, we identify the biblical story of Solomon’s judgment as an origin story which constitutes an understanding of justice in matters of reproduction that is still hegemonic today. “Reproductive justice” is a popular, strong, and important activist concept, but it is important, for any feminist reappropriation, that the concept is truly liberated from any form of maternal capture constituted by a patriarchal configuration of justice in matters of reproduction. Working with Joy James’ concept of the captive maternal, a “hack” of Solomon’s judgment is orchestrated, in order to reimagine reproductive justice within a feminist mythology.
