Jezebel: How to Help a Friend Through an Abortion →
Sometimes people have abortions and they are cool with it, and that’s okay. Sometimes people have abortions and they are robo-upset about it, and that’s okay too. Sometimes even girls who are adamantly pro-choice and feel really strongly about abortion rights and have worked for years at high profile pro-choice organizations can feel a little crappy after their abortion.

NYT: After Fetus Is Found in Trash, a Rare Charge... →
How can we, as a community of reproductive health professionals and advocates, parlay this story (and others like it) into a comprehensive discussion of abortion access and women living in poverty?
