Why Assisted Death Is A Feminist Issue

Elly Arrow and Sybil Jo discuss the increasing decriminalization of physician-assisted death and what it means for anyone who cares about traumatized, disabled and/or impoverished women and girls. They go over how concept of autonomy and even empowerment are used across the sexual and reproductive exploitation industries all the way to assisted death, and why these arguments fall flat for the vast majority of people in vastly unequal societies.Sources:"Don't Go Gentle: The Case Against Assisted Death" by Kathleen Stock: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/239517007-do-not-go-gentle"Better Off Dead" documentary film by Liz Carr: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001z8wcNot Dead Yet organization by disabled activists advocating against assisted suicide: https://notdeadyet.org/"Women And Assisted Death" podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2qCkHrvU7BEHbaBETjM6tL
