Feminist Sleeper Cell

Episode 89: Is It That Hard to Condemn White Supremacy?


Listen Later


 Let’s all collectively breathe deeply and donate $750 toward abortion access, after the truly terrifying display of fascism and general white man pandering on the presidential debate stage this week. Not only are we more informed on Europe’s “forest cities” (wtf?!?) but we also all saw the historic moment that a sitting US president declined to disavow white supremacy. As our guest Lara Chelian of Northland Family Planning explains, these very same domestic terrorists have shown up throughout her life as a second-generation abortion provider, threatening the life and autonomy of patients and her family.
