This event is part of the Vagina Museum and Sarah Parker Remond Centres (Re)producing Justice programme.
✨✨✨
Join us for Take the Front Page, an arts and collage-based workshop. Together, we will examine the history and present of struggle while exploring how to create new narratives of reproductive autonomy.
We will begin with a welcome activity and icebreakers to get to know each other as a group.
Our first activity will be a reflection on different sources charting the history of Reproductive Justice for Black and Brown Women in the UK, looking at historical timelines, news exerts, and art works.
Next we move on to discuss our personal struggles with body autonomy, crafting personal timelines and having a chance to reflect as a group.
Finally, we will craft our own ‘Front page’ headlines and images, imagining what the future of reproductive autonomy could look like.
