- Imani Rupert-Gordon, executive director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights in San Francisco, moderated an insightful conversation on bodily autonomy, a fundamental human right that lies at the core of personal freedom, choice, and self-determination.
The all-BIPOC female-identifying panel engaged around this essential concept: what defines it, how it affects various communities differently, the current legal, social, and political barriers that surround it, and what actions can be taken in its support.
The panel includes Asmara Gebre, University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine faculty in the OBGYN department with clinical practice at San Francisco General Hospital; Aria Sa’id, transgender advocate and political strategist; founder/President Emerita of The Transgender District; and Lashanda (Tootie) Salinas, inaugural recipient of the National AIDS Memorial Hope and Inspiration Award which is bestowed upon an individual who has clearly exemplified through challenge and struggle what it means to be resilient and who serves as an inspiration for the HIV/AIDS community.
