Why You Can't Make Abortion Illegal!

In this episode of The Leftish Agenda, Eddie delves into the stark comparison between the institution of chattel slavery and restricted access to medical services, notably the option of abortion. The conversation circles themes like Bodily Autonomy, Forced Continuation of Pregnancy, Economic and Social Implications, Legal and Institutional Control, Historical Context and Intersectionality, Psychological Impact and finally, Resistance and Agency. Eddie underscores the violation of basic human rights, systemic oppression, intersectional control, and the traumatic experiences when individuals are not permitted to exercise reproductive rights. He stresses on the importance of understanding these critical comparisons to fortify the fight for reproductive rights and uphold social justice, especially for marginalized communities.
