Often missing from the current public debates about assaults on reproductive rights are the workers who put themselves more and more at risk to provide abortion services. Patricia Kullberg speaks with filmmaker and Mole Jan Haaken and reproductive rights activist Sierra Romesburg from Democratic Socialists of America about reproductive justice and Jan’s documentary about abortion providers: Our Bodies, Our Doctors. The film will be shown Saturday, September 10 at the Hollywood Theater as a benefit sponsored by DSA for the Lillith Clinic, the new independent abortion clinic in Portland. A panel discussion will follow with Jan, former Jane (underground abortion provider) Judith Arcana and current abortion provider Dr. Andrea Chiviarini. More information can be found at the Hollywood Theater website.
