Dear (name),

Join us on Tuesday, July 28 at 12 p.m. ET for an important discussion, Regressive Gender Roles in the Authoritarian Era.

At the center of every authoritarian regime is the end goal of achieving control of the entire populations. Across history, autocrats have viewed curtailing women’s rights, such as the right to reproductive healthcare, as a major milestone towards consolidating power. It’s no coincidence that democratic backsliding is happening alongside limits on bodily autonomy popping up around the U.S. as well as increased conservative propaganda promoting the so-called “traditional family.”

Please tune in for a timely discussion, “Regressive Gender Roles in the Authoritarian Era,” by signing up now!

On this webinar, we’ll discuss how democracy and gender rights have always been intertwined and look at how past authoritarian regimes have targeted women’s rights as a tool of coercion. We’ll also reflect on how these historical examples compare to our current crisis of right-wing activists seeking to undo decades of social progress.

Confirmed speakers:

  • Madeline Peltz, journalist and author of the forthcoming book “Good Girls and Alpha Males: How Conservative Media Is Targeting Gen Z,” out February 2027

Sign up now for our next Act and Learn webinar, “Regressive Gender Roles in the Authoritarian Era” on Tuesday, July 28 at 12 p.m. ET.
