THIS WEEK on Feminist Magazine with host Lynn Harris Ballen : FIRST … This week would have been the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade. But it’s been over a year since the U.S. Supreme Court eliminated that constitutional right to abortion.
You’re invited to expand the conversation on Sunday Jan 28th at “Beyond Roe” an online event that delves into the intersection of abortion access, economic justice, and religious liberty.
