On this episode, Renee Bracey Sherman, founder of We Testify talks about abortion storytelling and why it is so important to center the experiences of people who have had abortions, particularly those who have been historically marginalised in reproductive healthcare. In this episode, we’ll be discussing the intersection of abortion and race, challenging narratives of the anti-abortion movement in the USA, and looking at how abortion is represented in TV.
