AIVL’s webinar series: You Can’t Say That, delves into evidence-based and logical ideas that seem to face pervasive stigma from institutions across Australia. For the second webinar in the series, we reflect on the historical exclusion of women and nonbinary people who use drugs from traditional feminist spaces and advocacy. We also examine the origins, rise, and impact of Narcofeminism, a global feminist movement led by people who use drugs.
