In episode #457 of Talking Radical Radio, Scott Neigh interviews Martha Paynter and Frédérique Chabot. Paynter is a registered nurse, a researcher, an activist, and the founder of an organization called Wellness Within, which works for reproductive justice, health equity, and prison abolition. Chabot is the director of health promotion at Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights, an organization that does public education, health promotion, and advocacy in Canada and globally. In the context of Action Canada's annual Sexual and Reproductive Health Awareness Week campaign, they speak about why advocacy in these areas is important, and about why in Canada today it is vital that it centre prison abolition, migrant justice, and other struggles led by people who are regularly "discarded" and dehumanized by dominant systems.
