The Scare Tactics of the Anti-abortion Mob With E.R. Fightmaster & Tània Verge
Description
Full episode transcript HERE.
Lizz is back! This week’s secret words are “Fightmaster” and “Catalonia” – and they’re both making this world a much doper and safer place for folks with uteruses. Your Feminist Buzzkills are ranting and raging about the anti-abortion movement’s talent for inventing fake problems to solve, and then miraculously solving them. We’re also diving hard into these clowns’ obsession with abortion coercion and spotlighting northern Idaho’s Jen Jackson Quintano, the lone abortion rights organizer holding down the fort and building an army of womb warriors.
GUEST ROLL CALL: The one and only, E.R. Fightmaster IS HERE! They rant with us on non-toxic masculinity, queer joy, how doctors and abortion activists can be more inclusive, and why everyone needs to go stream their EP Violence RIGHT NOW! PLUS, Catalonia’s very own Minister of Feminisms, Tània Verge Mestre, blesses us with her knowledge on intersectional feminist politics in Catalonia (AKA Feminist Paradise), getting a seat at the table, menstrual equity and its ties to gender and climate justice, and so much more. This is a powerful one!
Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y’all. We gotchu.
