Description

When Roe fell, eyes turned to a quiet – and undeniable – giant in the conversation on abortion care: corporate America. In a post-Roe world, an employer can be the last line of defense for folks seeking an abortion. And their silence can speak volumes. For the next few episodes, we’re talking about the response to the overturn of Roe.This episode, Kate and Jamia detangle how the notoriously tricky world of employer-sanctioned healthcare could offer aid to employees in states with restrictive abortion laws– and the obstacles standing in the way.If you’re looking to take action in the fight for access to reproductive care, head to ActBlue’s directory to donate directly to reproductive justice groups and abortion funds across the country.

The Supreme Court has done the unimaginable, repealing the landmark Roe v. Wade decision and stripping Americans of a fundamental right: abortion access. On the latest season of Ordinary Equality, hosts Kate Kelly and Jamia Wilson ask: what now? What does resisting bans and seeking care look like in a world without federal protection of abortion access? How can we build community and support the most vulnerable? How are abortion providers in states where abortion was already severely restricted working around the system? Join us as we decipher the future of abortion access and explore the stories of survival and resistance in a post-Roe world.
