Life Is A Living Nightmare: A Telethon To Fix It

At Lady Parts Justice, Brooklyn (NY), United States
On 1st February 2018 9 p.m. - 11 p.m.

Description

Comedian Sarah Silverman and The Daily Show Co-Creator & Lady Parts Justice Co-Founder Lizz Winstead will be live from the Feminist Sleeper Cell on Thursday, February 1st, co-hosting Life Is A Living Nightmare: A Telethon To Fix It.

In a country dominated by federal, state and local politicians hell bent on bringing on The Apocalypse, the battle to fix it is more crucial than ever. Tune in for Life Is A Living Nightmare: A Telethon To Fix It, a hell-raising comedy fundraiser that will make you laugh while raising awareness and funds to help Lady Parts Justice continue their work curbing the current assault on reproductive rights and replacing political extremists with pro-choice politicians in all branches of government. Let's be real, the fact that we even have to do a telethon to help get out the vote and throw out anti-choice politicians should have EVERYONE calling in to donate and tuning in to learn how to take action.

Broadcast live from a top-secret Feminist Sleeper Cell, the telethon will livestream at LadyPartsJustice.com as well as on Lizz’s Facebook page, so no matter where you’re sheetcaking or sheeting your pants, join us for the fun and learn how YOU can get involved and make 2018 the year we make it stop. The #LPJTelethon includes comedy, music, parlour games, and a celebrity craft corner where some of your favorite celebs will be creating in real time one-of-a-kind items that will be also auctioned live during the telecast. Oh, and there may or may not be a piñata of Harvey Weinstein in a bathrobe.

Appearances include Sarah Silverman, Mark Hamill, Rachel Bloom, Andy Richter, Greg Proops, Amy Brenneman, Rhea Butcher, Brian Unger, Guy Branum, Baron Vaughn, Naomi Ekperigin, Aida Rodriguez, Cameron Esposito, Eliza Skinner, abortion providers and LPJ (s)heroes Amy Hagstrom Miller and Dr. Willie Parker, PLUS more announcements to come!

Save the date. Gather your friends, tune in and FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, HELP US FIX IT!

ABOUT LADY PARTS JUSTICE:

Lady Parts Justice is the first not safe for work, rapid response reproductive rights advocacy organization that uses comedy, culture and diverse media to sound an alarm on the terrifying erosion of reproductive access. Co-founded by the co-creator of The Daily Show, Lizz Winstead, LPJ uses comedy and reproductive health facts to produce hilarious strategic and educational content that destigmatizes abortion, calls out misogynistic politicians, and rallies voters to fight back against anti choice legislation on a federal, state, and local level.

The name Lady Parts Justice is an homage to Lisa Brown, a former Michigan state rep who when in office was banned from the statehouse floor for using the word vagina when arguing against a transvaginal ultrasound bill. When she asked what she should say they suggested something less provocative like “lady parts.” The offensive nature of men uncomfortable with the word vagina, but perfectly comfortable legislating it, inspired both the name and mission of this groundbreaking reproductive rights organization.
