What happens when Roe v. Wade is overturned, and how does it impact the abortion landscape in the US? Join us for a riveting discussion with Garnet Henderson, senior multi-platform reporter for Rewire News Group and host of ACCESS: A Podcast about Abortion. DB and Garnet delve into the history of the medical system's relationship with abortion, and the rise of anti-abortion violence, and how folks can still access abortion even in a post-Roe America. They also discuss the criminalization of self-managed abortions and the disproportionate effects on people of color, low-income individuals, young people, and those living in the South and Midwest. Lastly, Garnet shares her thoughts on the ties between the anti-abortion movement and far-right political violence in the US. Tune in for an eye-opening episode that uncovers the ongoing fight for reproductive rights and justice.
