Bodies on the Line
The Supreme Court looks poised to overturn Roe v. Wade and many states around the country are already passing what are effectively bans on abortion. In communities where clinics remain open, volunteer escorts shepherd patients safely to clinics to receive care in the face of harassment from protestors. Author Lauren Rankin writes about these everyday volunteers who are fighting on the front lines of reproductive rights in her new book Bodies on the Line: At the frontlines of the fight to protect abortion in America.
