RAGE | Roe v Wade
Episode description
Our bodies, our choice, our voice. On Friday, June 24, 2022, in a chilling reversal of 50 years of established constitutional protection for abortion, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, the landmark piece of legislation that made access to an abortion a federal right in the United States. It is a violation of women's rights, of human rights.
#AnthemsRoevWade is a collection of 7 original manifestos, speeches, stories written and voiced by exceptional women in repsonse to the overturning of Roe v Wade.
Your word of the day is RAGE: a period of extreme or violent anger
Anthems was created, sound designed and produced by Hana Walker-Brown.
