November 17, 7:00PM: Book Club Meeting: How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America

Purity balls. Abstinence-only sex education. The global gag rule. In a political environment in which sex and the prevention of pregnancy and STIs are dirty topics of discussion, younger women are faced with extreme challenges as they seek credible facts about sexuality and sexual health. Christina Page’s How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America: Freedom, Politics, and the War on Sex reveals that the anti-abortion, anti-sex crusaders are damaging not only our access to family planning tools and health information, but preventing our access to the basic American rights of independence, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness.

Join YWTF-NYC as we discuss the book with the author, Christina Page. Bring your questions and concerns to the table in an open conversation about health, women’s rights, and politics.
