Episode 38 - Choice, Consent, and Control: What Bodily Autonomy Really Means
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we have a critical conversation about bodily autonomy, the right to make decisions about one’s own body, free from coercion, discrimination, or violence.
Our guest, Lily Dong Li Rosengard, shares her insights on the importance of bodily autonomy for gender equality, sexual and reproductive health and rights, and social justice. We explore the ways systemic barriers, cultural norms, and policy gaps impact people’s ability to fully exercise control over their own bodies and why defending these rights is essential for building equitable societies.
Tune in for a powerful discussion about choice, freedom, and feminist leadership and what it takes to reclaim autonomy in our everyday lives.
