Body, Law, and Liberty: Karen Thompson
Podcast: Future HindsightPublished On: Thu May 15 2025
Description: We discuss the growing phenomenon of pregnancy criminalization, examine the path forward in a post-Dobbs world, and consider what a just jurisprudence of pregnancy might look like. Karen’s civic action toolkit recommendations are: 1) Educate yourself at the Pregnancy Justice website: https://www.pregnancyjusticeus.org/our-issues/ 2) Make your voice heard, put pressure on district attorneys who bring cases to criminalize pregnant people. Karen Thompson is the Legal Director of Pregnancy Justice and leads a team defending the rights of people who face criminalization because of their pregnancies or pregnancy outcomes. Let’s connect!
