How the heck did we get her? The history of abortion is as long as human history. From the time of the Ancient Egyptians, people with uteruses have sought the right to choose when and if they want to have a child. From Japan to NewZealand, Rome, and Greece, abortions have been a part of the human experience. Even those so called prudish colonial Americans treated abortion as just another form of medicine. And you know those founding fathers, they never made abortions illegal! So how did we get here? What was Roe v. Wade all about? All this and more in this weeks episode.
