The best part about Reproductive Justice? That there are no rules! In this episode of Bodies Count, Simran chats with Bianca from Forward Together on their experience with being a non-birthing parent who chose to co-lactate and be part of chest feeding their baby.This episode is a continuation of Bianca's article on co-lactation in Forward Together's New Visions anthology. New Visions is a living anthology, a love letter to those who have felt unheard or unrepresented within reproductive justice spaces.

FULL VIDEO It's the last episode of season 2! Thank you for being here for two whole seasons of F*ck Marry Kill, we can't wait for an even better, spicier, sillier season 3.

We filmed this episode during our joint event in New Orleans to discuss the criminalization of healthcare in the South, do a community food drive, and write letters to incarcerated folks. FMK is so grateful to be a part of these kinds of impactful partnerships and are so excited to continue to share these live episodes with all of you!
