CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussion of miscarriages and pregnancy loss.
Faith Organizers Kelley Fox and Terry Williams address the particulars of Ohio's current six-week abortion ban, discussing how pregnancy durations are calculated and what best practices can help keep self-managed abortion decisions private. Kelley and Terry spend time diving into a recent study from friends at If/When/How examining the last two decades of abortion criminalization in the U.S., with an eye toward what past lessons can teach us about the future of abortion access.
