The C.O.W.S. - A podcast by barneygumble

Categories:

Three time C.O.W.S. guest and the George A. Weiss University Professor of Law & Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania ventured across the continent to give a presentation at Seattle’s University of Washington. Her talk is entitled: “The Urgency of Reproductive Justice.” Roberts included the Tennessee arrest of Bianca Clayborne and Deonte Williams. Their five children were snatched after the attempted parents were accused of illegal possession of cannabis. She also referenced the Ohio persecution of Brittany Watts, where a black attempted mother may be charged for defiling a corpse following the miscarriage of her child. She requested medical assistance, but did not get adequate, timely help. Gus T. was proud to hear the Afiya Center in Texas continues to do constructive work helping pregnant black mothers. Their executive director, Marsha Jones, was a guest on The C.O.W.S. in 2017. Roberts also detailed the history of White Supremacist sterilizations against non-white females. She included a photo of Elaine Riddick. Her child, Tony, was a guest on our platform in January 2012. C.O.W.S. participants were not just spectators for Roberts important commentary! We asked questions. #BlackBabiesCostLess #TheCOWS15Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
