Jameela welcomes producer, TEDx speaker and founder of GirlTalkHQ.com, Asha Dahya for a compassionate and eye-opening conversation about why people have abortions in the later stages of pregnancy. The two discuss the politically charged future of reproductive rights without Roe v Wade, the reality of later abortion as healthcare with a focus on saving lives, and how the landscape of abortion access in the US has been increasingly challenging. This episode will help anyone understand how to better advocate for abortion rights by arming you with important facts to counter misinformation.
