Abortion is popular, and common. So why are people afraid to talk about it? How much more might you understand about abortion access in the U.S. if talking about it wasn’t taboo?
On ACCESS, our goal is to answer all the questions you might have been afraid to ask, dedicating every single episode to abortion. There are no pundits here, only experts—including real people who’ve had abortions.
