Wade \u003c\/i\u003eassured millions of women that abortion was a protected constitutional right due to a woman's right to privacy. In the context of the burgeoning women's rights movement, it seemed like an inalienable victory: women might become equal to men in their right to determine what would happen to their bodies. This was a hard-won fight that reached back to colonial America and slavery, but on June 24, 2022, the decision was shockingly reversed by the Supreme Court in \u003ci\u003eDobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. \u003c\/i\u003eWhat happened? What transpired socially, politically, legally, in religious institutions and in popular culture in the half-century when \"the right to choose\" led to this stunning transformation in American society? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eRoe v.

They assembled at Harvard University in the weeks following the \u003ci\u003eDobbs\u003c\/i\u003e decision to talk through the centuries-long history of abortion in what became the United States, how its representation changed in the law and popular culture, and how a wellspring of social movements on both the right and left led to a fifty-year showdown over some of the most outstanding human questions: What is life? When does it begin? Who has the right to end it? Who has the right to determine what happens to someone else's body? How can the law define and restrict women's reproductive health? And how have race, class, geography, sexuality, and other factors shaped who gets to be a part of answering these questions? The international impact of the struggles for reproductive freedom for women within the United States comes into sharp focus within this important volume, shedding light on past, present, and future dimensions of reproductive freedom for all Americans.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDeirdre Cooper Owens (Author) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e DEIRDRE COOPER OWENS is an associate professor at the University of Connecticut and a former director of the Program in African American History at the Library Company of Philadelphia.
