This event is co-sponsored with GRR, Maine Women's Lobby, and Maine Family Planning. 

BIRTHRIGHT: A WAR STORY is a feature length documentary that examines how women are being jailed, physically violated and even put at risk of dying as a radical movement tightens its grip across America. The film tells the story of women who have become collateral damage in an aggressive campaign to take control of reproductive health care and to allow states, courts and religious doctrine to govern whether, when and how women will bear children. The documentary explores the accelerating gains of the crusade to control pregnant women and the fallout that is creating a public health crisis, turning pregnant women into criminals and challenging the constitutional protections of every woman in America. This is the real-life “Handmaid’s Tale.”

This event is RESCHEDULED from March 13 due to inclement weather.

Film screening at 7:00pm, followed by a panel discussion. This event is co-sponsored with GRR, Maine Women's Lobby, and Maine Family Planning.
