SUMMARY:Born After Roe: Stories from the Intersection
DESCRIPTION:Join Born After Roe and Planned Parenthood Minnesota Advocate for Stories from the Intersection: How Race\, Immigration\, and Trans Rights Intersect with Reproductive Freedom. \nWe know that policies about reproductive health and rights don’t just live in our lawbooks. They live in real people’s bodies and experiences. And people are not one-dimensional. The ability to access reproductive health care can be affected by your zip code\, socioeconomic status\, immigration status\, race\, gender identity\, and so much more. \nRepresentatives from Navigate MN\, ACLU of Minnesota\, and the Trans Health Leadership Program at Planned Parenthood Minnesota Advocate will join us to discuss how reproductive health and freedom intersects with immigration rights\, racial justice\, and transgender health and rights. We will hear stories of how people’s reproductive health have been affected by their access to power and privilege and learn what we can do to fight for the rights and health of all.

SUMMARY:Equal Means Equal Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join Anoka Ramsey Community College and League of Women Voters ABC for a screening and discussion of the documentary film Equal Means Equal.\n\nAbout the film: EQUAL MEANS EQUAL is an unflinching look at how women are treated in the United States today. By following both real life stories and precedent setting legal cases\, director Kamala Lopez discovers how outdated and discriminatory attitudes inform and influence seemingly disparate issues\, from workplace matters to domestic violence\, rape and sexual assault to the foster care system\, the healthcare system and the legal system. Along the way\, she reveals the inadequacy of present laws in place that claim to protect women\, ultimately presenting a compelling and persuasive argument for the urgency of ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment.
