  • Summary

  • Hosted by Monica Morales-Garcia and Asha Dahya, Green Tide Rising is an eight-episode audio documentary series that shines a light on the accomplishments of the Green Wave movement in Latin America, which is instrumental in shaping some of the most progressive abortion policies in the world. Grounded in rigorous research and steeped in our cultural zeitgeist, audiences will have a front row seat to the true stories of this modern movement. Through the eyes of feminist lawyer and reproductive rights advocate Ximena Casas Isaza, we meet the people who were on the ground as these revolutionary changes unfolded and who have turned the fight for reproductive freedom into a powerful feminist movement. Their unwavering dedication to changing abortion laws and ensuring access to care can serve as both a blueprint and an inspiration to activists and citizens in the U.S. as we continue to face setbacks within our own judicial system and medical establishment. We examine the impact of abortion bans that have criminalized pregnant people across Latin America, and how the U.S. could face the same fate if we don't act now. Green Tide Rising positions the Global South as a beacon of hope and a reminder for what is at stake for the Global North. We are offering a call to action from Latin America to the U.S. which will bolster public opinion that abortion is a fundamental human right.

    GREEN TIDE RISING (GTR) is an eight-episode audio and video series that spotlights Latin America's Green Wave movement and how it's shaping some of the most progressive abortion policies in the world, while asking the question: what can those of us fighting for reproductive freedoms in the U.S. learn from their iconic leadership? Through the eyes of feminist lawyer and reproductive rights advocate Ximena Casas Isaza, we meet the people who have turned the fight for reproductive justice in Latin America into a powerful, modern feminist movement - from the tip of Argentina all the way to Colombia and beyond. Hosted by Monica Morales Garcia and Asha Dahya, Green Tide Rising positions the Global South as a beacon of hope and a reminder of what’s at stake for the Global North if we don't act now.

    ARGENTINA - Birthplace of the Green Wave (Bilingual)
    Sep 12 2024
    Our series begins in Buenos Aires, the birthplace of the Green Wave. In 2020, Argentina achieved a milestone by legalizing abortion up to 14 weeks. But a new right-wing president could potentially jeopardize this progress. We meet feminist lawyer Soledad Deza, who represented Belén, a woman who was imprisoned for an obstetric emergency and whose story catalyzed what would become an international movement; and we speak with Marta Alaniz, the founder of the Argentina chapter Catolica por el Derecho de Decidir (Catholics for the Right to Decide). Marta, a Green Wave icon, recounts how the green scarf became the symbol of the movement: “how much can be said without saying anything at all?” As the Green Wave reaches the shores of the US in a perilous time for reproductive freedom, our resident expert and feminist lawyer Ximena Casas explains that what Argentina has achieved, and what the Green Wave continues to do, can serve as both a warning and a blueprint for success for Americans invested in the fight to protect our bodily autonomy.
