Reproductive Rights and Justice in 2021
December 9, 2020@7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Abortion access, reproductive justice and maternal health are on the line in 2021. With a record number of recent conservative appointments to the federal judiciary and the most conservative Supreme Court we’ve seen in years, plus a maternal health crisis that hits Black and brown women hardest, there are critical priorities for the year ahead.
To understand the issues and learn how you can get involved, join us for a workshop series with the Center for Reproductive Rights. You’ll hear from legal experts and grassroots organizers about what we all need to know now.
In The Meteor Fund’s first workshop, hosted by Dahlia Lithwick of Slate with Fajer Saeed Ebrahim of the Center for Reproductive Rights, and Michelle Wilson of Women Engaged, we’ll cover topics like:
- What’s ahead in light of the new Supreme Court and the current political climate
- The widespread state-level damage to abortion access—and possible solutions
- Recent reproductive rights legislative and policy changes
Most of all, we’ll learn what we can each do to make a difference. No subject knowledge or organizing experience necessary—everyone is welcome!
