Kristan Hawkins: Hormonal Birth Control Is Lying to Women (Here’s How) | DSH #1791

Kristan Hawkins joins Digital Social Hour at AmFest for one of the most in-depth conversations on birth control, feminism, declining birth rates, and the future of the pro-life movement.

As the president of Students for Life of America, Kristan breaks down why hormonal birth control has been pushed for decades instead of treating women’s health issues, how feminism drifted away from its original principles, and why modern culture is producing record-high unhappiness among women.

She also explains how Planned Parenthood became one of the most powerful political forces in America, why abortion is now central to Democratic Party politics, how campus activism actually changes minds, and why young people — not Washington — are the key to cultural change.

This is a long-form, unapologetic conversation about biology, culture, power, and why the most important debates today are happening on college campuses.
