(dir. Civia Tamarkin, 2017, 100 min)

Tracing the legacy of abortion as a cultural and legal battleground in the United States, Tamarkin’s new documentary profiles six women who have been jailed, physically violated, or exposed to unnecessary health risks by laws restricting and regulating access to abortion. Birthright argues that the crusade to “protect” pregnant women is creating a public health crisis while simultaneously turning pregnant women into criminals and challenging the constitutional protections of women in the United States. This screening follows reproductive justice activist Loretta Ross’s lecture on Thursday, January 25 at 4:30 pm in Ho 101, and is cosponsored by the Lampert Institute, the Dean of the College, Women’s Studies, and Sociology & Anthropology.
