“Confronting the Right and the Clinic Defense Tactic”

Featuring:

Megan Lessard, NYC For Abortion Rights
Emily Janakiram, Red Bloom
Lizz Winstead, founder, Abortion Access Front

This is the last of four panel discussions from the Reproductive Justice Activist Day School, held at Verso Books in Brooklyn on November 23, 2019. Hosted by NYC Democratic Socialists of America.

As right-wing forces intensify their attacks on reproductive justice and abortion access, the need to build a strong left-wing movement for abortion rights and reproductive justice has become increasingly urgent. This day school is a step toward working across organizational lines to build a united, pro-abortion front.
