Choices: A Post-Roe Abortion Rights Manifesto
Join us for a public book talk by Merle Hoffman, an author, activist, and feminist health care innovator who has been on the front lines of the reproductive rights movement since 1971, when she helped establish one of the first abortion clinics in the United States. Her book Choices highlights her decades of experience, research, and analysis and sheds light on the catastrophic repercussions of overturning Roe, and what we must do moving forward to ensure the safety and legality of abortion and women’s health care nationally.
In Choices, Hoffman expresses her views on where we are and what lies ahead. She covers topics ranging from: revamping the healthcare system to support women’s rights; combatting rising authoritarianism; the weaponization of religion; fighting the antis; practicing courage; sabotage from within the movement; and activating the next generation in the fight for reproductive justice.
This book talk is a part of Post-Roe Reflections, a GWSS lecture series on feminist health activism.
