Meet with us
The Invitation
Are you a reproductive justice advocate, a radical activist, a culture jammer, a health care provider, a sex educator, someone who is pushing the envelope to fight for reproductive justice and sexual liberation? Are you someone else entirely that we would be tickled pink to talk to?
You’re invited to meet with the tour and share your story. We’re interested in knowing what you do and why you do it, how connected you feel (or don’t feel) to a larger movement, and what resources would help you achieve your mission. We would like to share your story through this website, as well as with others that we meet along the way.
Our goal is to end the trip with a better understanding of how people across the country are working to promote sex-positivity and reproductive justice. We are particularly interested in talking with people who have traditionally been marginalized from mainstream conversations about sexuality and reproduction – women of color, women in rural areas, immigrant women, low-income women…people who may not identify as pro-choice, or sex-positive, but who are working every day to help women own their bodies and their lives.
Some specific categories of people we’d love to meet up with include:
Reproductive justice advocates – organizers, volunteers, political junkies – the people who work legislatively and politically to protect and advance access to reproductive health care.
Sex educators – people who would rather be talking about boundaries, safer sex techniques, and the gender spectrum than pretty much anything else.
Radical activists – people who are working outside the system, exploring radical and revolutionary ways of providing health care, talking about sex, challenging cultural paradigms.
Sex-positive proprietors – the people who bring open attitudes about sexuality and a lot of lube to the clean, well-lighted sex store in your neighborhood.
Culture-jammers and table-turners – the artists and performers who use their talents to stretch our brains and change the way we talk about sexuality.
Health care providers – the ones on the front lines, working every day to provide reproductive health care.
