Description

This week, Sandhya and Allison talk about the anti-abortion bills being pushed through state legislatures and the history of the politicization of female presenting people's bodies. As the information in the episode is not as recent as current events, The Universal Grain should not be used as a source for updates on abortion bans in states. Instead, look online to reputable news sources for recent updates with lawsuits and bans.
