Ep. 4 Reproductive rights and animal rights

Ep. 4 Reproductive rights and animal rights

Professor Sherry Colb speaks to us about reconciling the debates over reproductive rights and animal rights -- something that’s rarely discussed together and which was the subject of the book she co-authored with Michael Dorf, Beating Hearts. Professor Colb gives us an overview of the question “Do animal rights activists really care more about the well-being of nonhuman animals than they do about tiny humans?” and the converse question, “Do pro-life activists really care more about a human cell than about the suffering of fully sentient animals whose evolutionary history, brain chemistry, and emotional repertoire closely resemble our own?"
