Knitting Needles, Coathangers, and Black Market Drugs




Erica Hallerstein's excellent story called "The Rise of the DIY Abortion in Texas" was in The Atlantic last week. It's an important and well written story - of what the future looks like for women in states where they have no rights when it comes to their own reproduction. 

The future will contain knitting needles and coathangers - and it will also contain black market drugs. 

I thought we'd moved past all this, didn't you?


This is great work by Erica Hellerstein. Read it. Pass it on. Thank her on twitter at @E_Hellerstein, and listen to the podcast of her interview with Arnie and I on WNHN.
