Episode 34 - Feminist Futures Are Abortion-Positive
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Across Africa, young women and gender-diverse people continue to face stigma, criminalisation, and systemic barriers when seeking care that should be their right. But despite these challenges, activists and communities are organizing, educating, and demanding change.
Our guest, Mpho Masimong, is a fearless advocate for reproductive justice and gender equality. In this conversation, Mpho shares insights from their activism, the lived realities of those denied care, and the importance of centering bodily autonomy and feminist solidarity in the fight for safe, legal, and accessible abortion services.
Join us as we unpack what true reproductive freedom looks like — and what it will take to make it real for everyone.
