Description

Josie Pickens and connease warren speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025. This session was sponsored by the upEND Movement.

Since chattel slavery, state violence has regulated reproduction, evolving into institutions like family policing, which disproportionately targets marginalized communities under the guise of child protection. Using a reproductive justice framework, this session examines how surveillance, punishment, and control in family policing perpetuate reproductive oppression, undermining autonomy and justice.
