Roe V Wade was overturned last week by the Supreme Court which meant that after almost 50 years of abortion access being considered a constitutional right, the legislation was sent back to the individual states to decide for themselves. This court decision set the country ablaze and in turn forced the three of us to become even more informed to understand what was happening, what was at stake, what has transpired historically, and what this means for the future.
While these can be the times we find it far more comfortable to not "wade into the waters" of controversial conversations, we want to normalize having these very conversations with respect. In this episode, rather than focusing on our individual feelings and perspectives, we wanted to present the facts as we can find them--from the history of Roe Vs Wade, to Planned Parenthood Vs Casey, to the origins of Planned Parenthood, to the trigger laws certain states had in place in case the ruling was overturned and what that means for its residents. We talk about the things you may not know but probably want to know and should know to inform your opinions regarding such a difficult and often emotional topic.
