This event is hosted by Center for Reproductive Rights and Justice at UC Berkeley Law, Elephant Circle, If/When/How, and Movement for Family Power.
RSVP NOW for the LAST of our 5-part Breaking Silos in Reproductive Justice teach-in, “We Got Us: Community Care Models to Disrupt Poverty Criminalization & Family Separation" on August 12th.
Systems of criminalization have long stolen the resources families need to be safe, and then criminalized us for lack of resources. And for decades, racist myths like the “welfare queen” have been created to block government assistance for families and turn “assistance” into surveillance. This tactic continues today.
But in the face of structural abandonment, community protects community. Join us to hear from abolition dreamers who are advancing reproductive justice by building models of community care and demanding reparation:
Imani Worthy, Black Families Love & Unite
jasmine Sankofa, Movement for Family Power
Khiara M. Bridges, UC Berkeley Law
Margaret Prescod, Global Women's Strike
Rena Karefa-Johnson, FWD.US
zara raven, Philly Child Care Collective
Spanish language interpretation and closed captioning will be provided.
