The Disgusting Lack of Repro Healthcare for the Incarcerated with Dr. Michele Goodwin – Part 1

November 19, 2021

It’s a Feminist Buzzkills News Break! Along with an incredible special guest, the Buzzkills take a deep dive into what healthcare access looks like for incarcerated folks in the US – a dive so deep, that we’ll be breaking it all down over 2 episodes! Joining us with her expertise (and unstoppable glasses game) in discussing the overall challenges for healthcare, reproductive, and pregnancy care within this country’s racist, sexist, inhumane prison system is multi-hyphenate Badass, Reproductive Justice scholar and fighter, Chancellor’s Professor at UC Irvine, ACLU board member, author of Policing the Womb, podcast host of Ms. Magazine’s “On the Issues with Michele Goodwin,” and so much more – Dr. Michele B Goodwin!! Let’s get into it.
