Join guest editors Sarah Haley and Emily Thuma, S&F Online Senior Editor Sandra Moyano-Ariza, and S&F Online Executive Editor Rebecca Jordan-Young to mark the release of the Fall 2025 issue of The Scholar and Feminist Online, “Abolition Feminism and the Politics of Reproduction.” This conversation will focus on the issue’s development and key questions and themes, as well as its special release in print to expand accessibility.

The new issue of S&F Online brings together timely contributions within the emergent intersection of abolition feminism and social reproduction at a moment when carcerality continues to proliferate under new guises. This framework makes visible the carceral state’s imbrication in the maintenance of everyday life while insisting on the long genealogy of feminist struggles that have always understood abolition as a reproductive question. These contributions examine how gendered, racialized, and classed forms of life are both sustained and constrained by carceral systems, and how abolitionist praxis reimagines and rebuilds the reproduction of the social otherwise.

Registration is required. The event is only open to BC and CU ID holders. Refreshments will be provided. Organized by the Barnard Center for Research on Women.
