A new book by Katha Pollitt,
Pro: Reclaiming Abortion Rights, is getting a lot of attention in the left-wing press. What Pollitt most wants, it seems, is for us "to talk about
ending a pregnancy as a common, even normal, event in the reproductive
lives of women". These articles are a start:
- "Abortion: Not Easy, Not Sorry" (Laurie Abraham, Elle, from Feministe)
- "Abortion is Great" (Hanna Rosin, Slate Double X)
- "Abortion Without Apology: A Prescription for Getting the Pro-Choice Groove Back" (Lindsay Beyerstein, American Prospect)
You might also check out:
- Not Alone, a website where women tell their own stories about their experience with abortion
- Emily's Abortion Video (yes, it's old, but if you haven't seen it, it's new to you)
