The Intersection of Disability and Reproductive Justice - with Morénike Giwa Onaiwu, Rebecca Cokley, Keith Jones, and Heather Watkins

Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, we've seen huge repercussions for people's safety, health, access to medical care, and more. And we know that the overruling impacts people differently, depending on who you are. If you have marginalized identities, you experience more barriers to health care and, therefore, more barriers to accessing abortion and other reproductive-related health care.

To dive deep into how the overturning affects one marginalized community--the disability community--we invited four disabled activists on the You First podcast to discuss how this ruling affects them, the disability community as a whole, and other marginalized groups, especially in ways that you may not have ever considered. It's important to bring an intersectional lens to these conversations in order to fully grasp what the repercussions look like after a ruling like this. We talked with Morénike Giwa Onaiwu, Rebecca Cokley, Keith Jones, and Heather Watkins about what this ruling means to and for the disability community.

Please note that this conversation discusses heavy themes and references systems of oppression such as racism and ableism, infanticide, abortion, and forced sterilization. Listen or read the transcript at your pace and always feel free to pause and take time for breaks.
