reproduction, chronicle the real-life scenarios that result, and explore what lies ahead for the civil rights of women and girls.

"Abortion, for better or worse, has been bound up with the story of the advancement of women for the past century. And the emerging dynamics of the new post-Roe reality will define American women – and American politics – for years to come."
