Due to the current immigration crisis, Bernie Gonzalez, former president of SOPHIA, has organized a presentation via Zoom with several expert immigration lawyers.The primary target is the immigrant community, which is the most affected, however it is also
aimed for the general public. The main intention is to provide information about the rights and actions to be taken in the event of a raid. The attorneys will also provide the facts regarding the current situation and the executive orders on immigration issues
and differentiate these from the myths which are out there. In recent days, a lot of false information has been shared that, far from helping, only confuses and scares the community. </div>

Zoom panel with Dr Rishita Nandagiri and Dr Joe Strong discussing the ongoing state of abortion-related care in the context of current (and increasing) criminalization and restriction of care. Drawing on their academic work from a range of global contexts,
as well as their involvement in feminist abortion collectives, they outline the ways in which abortion care is shaped by intersecting injustices and inequalities as well as how these might be contested and resisted. Sponsored by the UW-Madison</div>
