Join the Intercept and the Center for Reproductive Rights on the 46th anniversary of Roe v. Wade for an engaging conversation about the future of reproductive rights in the United States – with a focus on abortion access and maternal health across racial, regional and economic lines.
The night will also feature a screening of the short Intercept documentary “An Abortion in Mississippi,” profiling a woman seeking to terminate her pregnancy at the only abortion clinic left in the Mississippi. This film is part of Intercept reporter Jordan Smith’s road trip through some of the most difficult places to obtain an abortion in the country.
