| 20 May 2020 | Intersex Rights with Hans Lindahl, Sean Saifa Wall, and Pidgeon Pagonis | 01:37:27 | |
In this third episode of Sex Ed with DB, Season 4, DB has a convo with Hans Lindahl, Sean Saifa Wall, and Pidgeon Pagonis about intersex rights. Hans is an artist, writer, and YouTuber. They currently serve as Communications Director for interACT: Advocates for Intersex Youth. Saifa is an intersex activist and public health researcher. He is co-founder of the Intersex Justice Project (IJP), a project whose mission is to end intersex surgery. Pidgeon has slowly, oftentimes not so quietly risen to visibility in Chicago as not only an activist on behalf of intersex people, but also as a fighter for the recognition of marginalized others in general, regardless of race, sex or gender identity, class or creed. Whether advancing youth advocacy with interACT or appearing on the cover of National Geographic “Gender Revolution” special issue, Pidgeon has staked out a place at the fore of debates on intersexuality and otherness. --- Sex Ed with DB, Season 4 Team: Creator, Co-Producer, Sound Engineer and Host: Danielle Bezalel (DB) Co-Producer and Communications Lead: Cathren Cohen Graphic Illustrator: Andrea Forgacs Website: Alex Morton --- Sex Ed with DB, Season 4 is Sponsored by: Clone-A-Willy, Aisle, FemmeFunn, Sweet Vibrations, ioba.toys, and Smile Makers Collection --- Love Sex Ed with DB?

Juno is arguably the most well-known depiction of adoption in pop culture... but what messages does it really send about relinquishment, teen pregnancy, and reproductive justice?

This week, we’re joined by Dr. Gretchen Sisson, sociologist and author of Relinquished: The Politics of Adoption and the Privilege of American Motherhood, to break down Juno’s thorny politics on choice, motherhood, and adoption.
