Reproductive Justice and the Prison-Industrial Complex: Examining the Connections

Join WGSS for a discussion with organizers and practitioners in the fields of reproductive justice and prison abolition to learn about the connections between racial and sexual violence, transphobia, and the prison-industrial complex. Speakers will address how barriers to health services and economic resources are shaped by white supremacy, settler colonialism, transphobia, and sexism, and how collectives and individuals are organizing against mass incarceration. Topics include gender self-determination, the disproportionate impact of mass incarceration on Black, brown, and indigenous populations, alternatives to policing, sexual assault survivors and the law, and collective access to reproductive resources. Q&A to follow panelist presentations.
