Practicing Pre-Roe: Learning From Our Past

<p>The Advocates share their reactions to SCOTUS decision to overturn <em>Roe v. Wade</em>, both in their own states and in our country.</p> <p>Later in the episode, they are joined by Dr. Henry Klapholz, a professor emeritus OB/GYN who lived and worked through pre-Roe years. We discuss the dangers of the pre-Roe era, what complications we should worry about now that abortion is prohibited in many places, as well as what is different now that self-managed abortion is an option for patients.</p> <p>There are so many things we can do, even if we are feeling hopeless and scared right now.
