Sperm banks and palliative care with Kelly and Anne McGuire

What does it mean to care for people and worlds that cannot simply be “fixed”? In Part 2 of this conversation, Eleanor Drage speaks with Kelly Fritsch and Anne McGuire, authors of Broken Worlds, Disabled Kin: Strategies for Collective Survival, about disability justice, collective care, maintenance, palliation, reproductive technology, and risk.They explore how mutual aid and disability culture offer alternatives to social abandonment, why palliation can help us live with loss and uncertainty, and how ideas about genetic and psychiatric risk can reinforce ableism and eugenic thinking. The episode asks how we can move beyond “fixing” individual bodies toward building more accessible, supportive, and just worlds.Reading List:Broken Worlds, Disabled Kin: Strategies for Collective Survival by  Kelly Fritsch & Anne McGuire“Crip Technoscience Manifesto” by  Aimi Hamraie & Kelly Fritsch “Crip Technoscience” by  Kelly Fritsch and Suze BerkhoutWar on Autism: On the Cultural Logic of Normative Violence by Anne McGuire Disability Injustice: Confronting Criminalization in Canada edited by Kelly Fritsch and colleaguesEdited by: Meibel Dabodabo
