Cat Brooks, host of KPFA’s Upfront, interviews Jenny Brown about abortion, reproductive justice, and the difficult conditions for having and raising children in the U.S. which are leading to the lowest ever birth rate and a spontaneous #birthstrike.
In a special segment of “By Any Means Necessary” Eugene Puryear and Sean Blackmon are joined by author Jenny Brown to talk about her new book “Birth Strike: The Hidden Fight over Women’s Work” now available from PM Press, the perverse motives behind anti-abortion and anti-birth control legislation and campaigns, the exploitation of motherhood by capitalism, what an organized birth strike could look like, and the intersection of white supremacy, male supremacy and birth policy.
