Gender-Affirming Care, Abortion, and the Politics of Science: A Response to Wuest’s 'Born this Way... Wuest highlights the contingency of scientific claims not only in LGBTQ+ advocacy but also in legal advocacy for and against abortion access.

“her detailed account forces us to accept an uncomfortable dynamic: that truth seeking has its own effects in the world and is made from inside the legal, social, and political contexts that encompass advocacy.”

New from Aziza Ahmed on Born this Way by @joannawuest.bsky.social

"many family caregivers turn to state-provided care to get some relief from care duties, yet the system perceives them at best as incidental beneficiaries and at worst fraudulent free-riders"

On how our system fails the 27 million people receiving at home care, the providers, and their families.

"One of the reasons that every billionaire is a policy failure is that at a certain level of wealth, people stop responding even to the good kinds of economic incentives, and it becomes possible to blow 44 billion dollars to engage in a kind of weird alt-right free speech absolutist performance art"

Today, Dorothy Roberts kicks off a symposium on her recent book *Torn Apart* and Wendy Bach's *Prosecuting Poverty, Criminalizing Care,* by describing the long intellectual and activist journey that led her to call for the abolition of the family policing system.
