Sabrina Jones on Women's Rights

  • Provincetown Public Library 356 Commercial Street Provincetown, MA, 02657 United States (map)

In an illustrated talk, Sabrina Jones discusses her graphic novel of Maragaret Sanger, who fought to legalize birth control a hundred years ago.

Jones will share recent illustrations created in response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe Vs. Wade. Jones’s autobiographical sections of Our Lady of Birth Control show her journey into activist art in response to the anti-feminist backlash of the Reagan era. From street theater and protest graphics to alternative comics, her path similarly follows in Margaret’s footsteps, encountering versions of the same adversaries.

Jones will also be presenting from her recent anthology, World War 3 Illustrated.
