Oveturning of Roe v. Wade

On 24th June the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ending the
legal right to abortion across the US which had been upheld since
1973. 

In this episode, we are joined by Young Fabians members Zahra
Lahrie, Charlotte Kelly, Nicki Adeleke, Cecilia Jastrzembska and
Amy Dwyer for a discussion about the history of Roe v. Wade, the
legal protections that it ensured, the harms that many
individuals will now face due to its overturning and what exactly
has led to this decision.

We also discussed what President Biden is doing to combat this by
signing an executive order; data privacy concerns; comparisons
with the situation in the UK and Northern Ireland and much
more.
