  • Summary

  • We're back from our mid-season break and finally ready to talk about all the crazy anti-abortion bullsh*t that's been going on in the United States. First, Kaylee outlines the legal history of abortion in the United States, from the national ban in 1910 to the passing of Roe v. Wade in 1973. Next, we discuss how abortion became a hot button issue for conservative Christians. Finally, Jen walks through what has changed state-by-state since the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
