By Jesse Lee Dunlap โข Guest Columnist | As someone whose politics are centered on bodily autonomy, I sympathize with folks who are against forced vaccinations. I bristle at anything that encroaches on a personโs individual freedoms โ restrictions on abortions, prohibition, gun laws, etc. โ any mandate, especially any mandate from the government, especially from the American government, which has a long history of using โmedicineโ to harm black, indigenous, and poor people. We all have ample reason to be cynical and skeptical of the American healthcare system, and no one should be ridiculed for questioning what is in a vaccine. This stuff is going right into your body. It is normal and prudent to question what goes in your body.
