Fetal Personhood: The Anti-Abortion Agenda
Anti-abortion groups have long used the controversial idea of fetal personhood to control pregnant people and advance their patriarchal, white supremacist agenda. In this webinar, we’ll look at the history of the fetal personhood movement, how the overturn of Roe has accelerated this movement’s goals, and the disturbing implications of fetal personhood for people with the capacity for pregnancy.
Fetal personhood is unscientific and unpopular, and anti-abortion leaders know it. On this webinar, we’ll be highlighting the ways they’ve pushed a narrative that weaponizes the law against pregnant people, and we’ll share strategies for countering this harmful agenda.
