Episode Five is the final episode of the Operation Save Abortion! Thanks for listening and for making a commitment to learn more, act more, fund more, and raise hell more in this fight for abortion and bodily autonomy. This is NOT a pod series you listen to while cleaning out your closet. It’s about listening with friends and utilizing the activity and discussion guide designed for each episode to deepen your knowledge. The goal is helping you discover which part of abortion activism is right for you, so you can help build and grow community.
Each of the five episodes feature amazing experts from the reproductive health, rights, and justice movements who show us the opportunities available.
Before you get into episode five, first listen to Episode 1. It’s your “Reproductive Justice 101” crash course. Abortion activism is just one part of this intersectional movement, so our first episode is designed to help ground your experience throughout this series and overall abortion advocacy in a Reproductive Justice Framework, reminding us to center those most most effected by these harmful laws, and by following Black, Brown and Indigenous leadership as we fight for bodily autonomy.
Episode fiive covers our favorite things about abortion activism, DIRECT ACTION! There’s no movement without folks who take to the streets, the statehouses, and anywhere we can raise awareness and raise hell. Throughout this episode, folks who brilliantly use art, comedy, rage, and creative actions tell you ways to expose or confront oppressors, and to educate and reframe the abortion narrative. So, take notes and use these dope activists as inspiration on how you can fight for abortion and bodily autonomy in these reproductive streets.
