Abortion is a Human Right with Comedian Lizz Winstead

Lizz Winstead is co-creator of The Daily Show and a fierce advocate for reproductive rights. She is the founder of an organization called Abortion Access Front, which uses humor to destigmatize abortion and provides support to clinics across the country. Jennifer invites Lizz on the show to discuss the state of reproductive rights, as the Supreme Court gets ready to consider a case that could challenge Roe v. Wade. Lizz shares the story of her abortion as a teenager; why she believes waiting periods are the most dangerous laws for women; how to invite people without uteruses into the conversation; and why abortion is a human rights issue for everyone. Plus, Jennifer shares why she thinks Lizz single-handedly changed the news media landscape.
