On Season 3 of The TMI Project Story Hour: Stories for Choice, host Eva Tenuto profiles some of our favorite storytellers, all of whom share radically true stories to fight for reproductive justice.
About Season 3: Stories for Choice
Choice and true reproductive justice are not just about abortion rights; it’s about comprehensive, safe, accessible reproductive healthcare for all, and the resources to support whatever choice they choose. We pair this body of work with a customized listening and discussion guide filled with writing prompts and post-listening action items you can take today. Join us as we take a deeper dive and share the stories behind the secrets, and what happened next.

“One of the most rewarding parts of working at TMI Project is seeing what storytellers look like when they step off stage. It often looks like they’re floating out of the theater. They look taller; lighter. It’s as if something has truly been lifted. To be able to witness that over and over fills my spirit. I can’t think of anything else I’d rather do.”
