Indra Lusero is a human rights attorney licensed in Colorado, and founder of Elephant Circle and the Birth Rights Bar Association. Indra designed Colorado’s ambitious Birth Equity bill package that passed in 2021 and has been involved in legislation to eliminate the shackling of incarcerated people during pregnancy and birth, create a presumption against incarceration of pregnant and postpartum people, improve midwifery and birth center regulations, and to create more humane policies for pregnant people impacted by substance use. Indra also spearheaded the creation of "Birth Rights: A resource for everyday people to defend human rights during labor and birth," and “Mobilizing the Office for Civil Rights’ Authority to Address Obstetric Violence and Obstetric Racism.” As a Queer, Genderqueer, Latinx/Genízaro parent rooted in the Rocky Mountain west, Indra is attuned to the importance of people on the margins and our role in leading the dismantling of oppressive systems to build a more equitable world.
