I am delighted to be in historic Buffalo for #AAHM2026. I felt especially welcome when Emma Wathen mentioned #OurBodiesOurselves at the very first panel I attended (a session on Disability and Reproduction in the US).

🔥 “the encyclical importantly reframes technological power as part of a much larger struggle over who gets to define and control human lives… AI as a grave threat to human dignity and the latest point on a much longer timeline of domination,” dependent on a new slave labor to function. #mustread
