The HisTerical Society Feminist Podcast

By: Pamela Torrance
  • Summary

  • The overturning of Roe v Wade has rocked women of the United States. I captured the moment in pro-choice documentary WE'RE NOT GOING BACK! which premiered in October, 2022 ahead of the November election. Since then, I've been tracking the horrible state-level legislation in red states as they march towards fascism in the RePro Roe-D-O posts within TheHisTericalSociety.com blog. This follow-on companion podcast will offer interviews and discussions on feminist issues plaguing people in the US.
