“The decision to become a parent is one of the most important life decisions that anybody makes.”
In this episode Diana has a candid conversation with Lupe Rodriguez, Executive Director of the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice about Latinas’ and the Latinx community’s access to reproductive care:
- what that looked like before the overturning of Roe v. Wade
- the specific barriers to access that Latinx communities face to access abortion care (hint hint Border Patrol has something to do with it)
- Shifting cultural narratives
- Marianismo and Catholicism and how they play a role
- Latina attitudes towards birth control and abortion
- La Marea Verde (the Green Wave)
- Why THIS is the moment to step up, speak out, get involved and do something.
“Aquí se respira lucha…Here we breathe resistance.”
