With the Supreme Court decision that ended Roe v Wade, states, hospitals, clinics, and caregivers are scrambling to figure out how to provide necessary health services without running afoul of often unclear, poorly created, and poorly worded laws.

With disparities already existing in health care — particularly in birthing mortality rates — the end of safe access to abortion in many states will likely mean even greater mortality among Black and other underrepresented minority communities.

In this episode, Anne and Ruby are speaking again with Dr. Jasmine Johnson, this time about the potential ramifications of this decision on all people who can get pregnant. Listen up, and if you're so moved, get active to protect reproductive health!
