In Their Own Words: The Dangers of Abortion Before It Was Legal

October 3, 2021

The Supreme Court is back in session on Monday. Justices will be considering a slew of high-profile cases, from the death penalty to immigration and women’s reproductive rights. That includes a review of a new Mississippi law barring abortion after 15 weeks. It’s considered to be a direct challenge to the Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that legalized abortion nationwide prior to the fetus viability. Nancy Miller and Sue Perlgut share in their own words the danger of abortions before they were legalized nationwide.
