Vice President JD Vance announced he wants to see "more babies in the United States of America." Today, we're diving into the American pronatalist movement, a coalition of tech bros, religious traditionalists, and right-wing extremists determined to raise the American fertility rate. We'll cover who is in this movement, what they hope to accomplish, and how this iteration of pronatalism is tied to Christian nationalism and white supremacy.<hr> Hosted on Acast.

Seizing the Means of Reproduction

White Picket Fence interrogates the structures of inequity affecting women since the United States' founding. On the newest season, host Julie Kohler investigates a long-brewing gender backlash that’s reached a boiling point in American politics.
