Jaclyn talks with Jessica Danforth, founder and executive director of the Native Youth Sexual Health Network, about colonialism, fracking, environmental justice, and what they all have to do with sexual health. Plus, a film about some badass Native youth activists in South Dakota, and an action you can take to increase access to emergency contraception on reservations. All that, plus the question: what IS sexual health, anyhow? Then we take an advice question about how to deal with a partner with a partner who means well but is less than satisfying.
