My Body, Our Rights

Radical cartoonists tell it like it is about abortion, contraception, healthcare, andidentity.The cartoonists of World War 3 Illustrated present comics on living in the body in ahostile society. From personal testimonies to collective chronicles, over 30 artists andwriters deploy graphic evidence that bodily autonomy is essential to the individualand to communities. Abortion is revealed as lived by generations before and afterbeing legalized. The mythic roots of misogyny, the rigid rules of gender, are exposedas outdated shams. Brave new lives are charted through the wilderness of broadeningpossibilities and furious backlash. Artists, activists, healthcare workers, and studentsunite in the belief that while my body is mine alone, our rights are always social, andmust be named and claimed in the public sphere. Once again WW3 elevates truth-telling to the art of resistance.Artists include: Roberta Gregory, Sabrina Jones, Sue Coe, Trina Robbins, Paula HewittAmram, Lee Marrs, Joyce Farmer, Rebecca Migdal, Sandy Jimenez, Seth Tobocman,Peter Kuper and many others.
