Fainting Couch Feminists Episode Fifty: Everything You Need to Know About Abortion Rights in the US and Canada feat. Joyce Arthur

Interview by 
Mica Lemiski

What exactly is happening with all this anti-abortion action in the US? Can states like Alabama really criminalize abortion, and what will happen if Roe v. Wade is overturned? Will Canada be impacted? These are just some of the questions Mica brought forth to Joyce Arthur, who is the executive director of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada. Joyce helped shed some light on the legality of abortion rights in the US and Canada, how important it is for pro-choicers to stay vigilant and make visible their politics, and why the language of human rights is such a powerful, dangerous tool within the anti-choice movement.
