Bridging Reproductive Justice and Disability Justice #ADA2022

This July, the country celebrates the 32nd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). But this is a complex moment for disabled people as we assess what it means to fully participate in society and live in a country where certain rights and access may no longer be guaranteed. The conversation surrounding reproductive rights and health and abortion access must not just include disabled perspectives, but also intersectional disabled voices. Black disabled women and femmes who have been a part of the fight for reproductive access, or who understand intimately what overturning of Roe vs. Wade means for multiply-marginalized members of the disabled community, must not just be heard, but be in position to lead the charge to protect the people most impacted. Join us on Thursday, July 21 from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM ET as we bring together individuals with lived and professional experiences whose viewpoints will add the much-needed nuance to the fight for our rights in this moment, and in the long term. Live captions and ASL interpretation will be available. Please note: this event may include pre-recorded content.
