If we're talking about Dobbs and democracy, there's no one better to talk to than Jessica Valenti, who writes the newsletter “Abortion, Every Day.”

She's also the author of a book that you should pre-order called “Abortion: Our Bodies, Their Lies, and the Truths We Use to Win.” 

Her invaluable reporting and commentary make the case that if you’re talking about “Dobbs and democracy,” you don’t need the word “and.”

Every day, Dobbs makes the case that democracy matters. Every day, we see the horrors that happen when people lose the right to be treated as full human beings. Every day, we're inspired by people who stand up and say, “Hey, I don't care what state I live in. I'm not gonna let anyone be denied rights that I was born with.”

Listen and let us know what you think about Dobbs/democracy. Catch up on all the episodes of “How are you feeling about democracy?” here. If you want to back this podcast, please join the earlyworm society – free or paid, your support matters.
