The 28th Annual Riley Lecture in Women's and Gender Studies
The 28th Annual Elizabeth and Charles P. Riley Lecture in Women's and Gender Studies will be held on Tuesday, April 4th, at 5:30 pm. Our Riley Lecturer, Dr. Katrina Kimport of the University of California, San Francisco, will give a talk titled "No Real Choice: How Culture and Politics Matter for Reproductive Autonomy."
Dr. Kimport is a professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences, and a medical sociologist in the Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health (ANSIRH-pronounced like "answer") program at the University of California, San Francisco. Her research examines the (re)production of inequality in health and reproduction, with a topical focus on abortion, contraception, and pregnancy. She has published over 75 articles in sociology, health research, and interdisciplinary journals. She is also the author of three books: "No Real Choice: How Culture and Politics Matter for Reproductive Autonomy" (2022, Rutgers), "Queering Marriage: Challenging Family Formation in the United States" (2014, Rutgers), and, with co-author Jennifer Earl, "Digitally Enabled Social Change" (2011, MIT).
