Capitalism Hits Home: Political Right vs. Abortion Rights

**CW: THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES ABORTION AND FORCED STERILIZATION**

[S5 E04] Political Right vs. Abortion Rights

Control of women's reproduction is a common weapon in the hands of the Right Wing. In the episode of Capitalism Hits Home, Dr. Harriet Fraad breaks down the fight for reproductive rights by looking at abortion access and forced sterilization. These issues are fundamentally about class and control: forcing women to have unwanted pregnancies, denying immigrants and minorities the right to reproduce, keeping women out of the labor force and reliant on men, and dividing the masses so organization and unity is impossible.
