It poses questions about the supposition that any consent at a teaching institution is sufficient to cover all consent\, but is it really? Many women have sexual trauma histories\, and most don't know to what extent they are actually consenting.\n\n\n\nAt Your Cervix aims to break the silence about how medical and nursing students learn to perform pelvic exams in the U.S. The film exposes how students are often taught on unconscious patients without their knowledge or consent. At the same time it offers an empowering solution that will revolutionize how pelvic exams are performed in schools and clinics across the country.\n\n\n\nFollowing the screening\, a diverse array of voices including the filmmaker A'magine\, medical clinicians and students\, mental health practitioners\, and bioethics specialists will engage in conversation on the layers surrounding these issues and its specific impact for black and brown women.
