Power & Sex: America’s War on Sexual Rights

Presented by The Center for the Humanities as part of their Great Issues Forums...No matter what happens in this election, it is time to talk about how the conservative agenda has come to dominate the national and international conversation on sexual practices and reproductive rights.

Where did Feminism falter? Why have American liberals become so intimidated? Participants include Dagmar Herzog, author of Sex in Crisis: The New Sexual Revolution and the Future of American Politics and Professor of History, Lynn Paltrow, Executive Director of National Advocates for Pregnant Women, Nation columnist Katha Pollitt, and Faye Wattleton, Director of the Center for the Advancement of Women. Michelle Fine, Distinguished Professor of Psychology at the Graduate Center, CUNY, will moderate.
