SUMMARY:27th Annual Reproductive Justice Conference: From Harm to Healing
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time: Thursday\, August 13\, 2026 \nLocation: California Endowment\,Los Angeles CA \nLearn More About the Event \nPurchase Tickets \nDownload Sponsorship Package \nThis year’s conference\, Harm to Healing: Dismantling Barriers to Reproductive Justice for Black Women and Girls\, seeks to confront the continuum of reproductive harm endured by Black women and girls. \nIt is both a remembrance and a call to action acknowledging that Black women’s bodies have historically been used for extraction\, experimentation\, and control–from forced reproduction of our ancestors to the surgical experiments of J. Marion Sims and the non-consensual use of Henrietta Lacks’ cells. \nThese harms continue today in maternal disparities\, dismissal of Black women’s pain\, and systemic barriers to reproductive autonomy. At this year’s conference\, we will hold space for truth-telling and collective healing. \nTogether\, we will exchange ideas\, support one another\, and develop practical steps to resist the very systems that exploit our bodies and reclaim time for joy and healing. \nCall for Abstracts Due May 1st. For questions or concerns email Ariel Grant at ariel@bwwla.com. \n

SUMMARY:Reproductive Justice Pre-Conference Fireside Chat
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time: July 14\, 2026 at 6:00 pm \nThe Legacy of Harm:  The Power of Healing \nClick to Register \nThis summertime pre-conference fireside chat brings together visionary artist and activist Michelle Browder\, founder of Mothers of Gynecology\, and trailblazing human rights activist\, co-founder of SisterSong\, and reproductive justice leader Loretta Ross for a powerful conversation rooted in this year’s theme: Harm to Healing: Dismantling Barriers to Reproductive Health for Black Women and Girls. \nDr. Jordie Davies will moderate the fireside chat.  Dr. Davies is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of California\, Irvine. She is also an affiliate faculty member of the UCI Culture and Theory Ph.D. Program and the Center for the Study of Democracy. Her research agenda focuses on the influence of social movements on political attitudes\, culture\, and civic engagement. \nTogether\, they will reflect on the enduring legacy of reproductive trauma and violence against Black women’s bodies\, from medical exploitation\, eugenics\, and forced reproduction to the ongoing inequities shaping Black women’s healthcare experiences today. \nThrough storytelling\, real talk\, and critical dialogue\, Ms. Browder and Ms. Ross will explore how memory\, art and activism can serve as tools for reclamation and resistance.  This conversation will not only honor the lives and bodies impacted by generations of harm but will also guide us toward healing\, dignity and autonomy. \nAttendees will be invited into a space of collective reflection and healing–one that affirms the voices of Black women and girls\, validates lived experiences and inspires us to challenge systemic injustices. \nThis fireside chat calls for participants to connect with the past\, challenge the present and actively engage in building an equitable future.
