The Faith of Abortion Activists

In the year since the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization Supreme Court decision overturned Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992)—ending the Constitutional right to an abortion—20 states have enacted outright bans or severe limitations on abortion. In conversation with Rabbi Nora Feinstein, faith leaders and activists share how faith communities can lean on each other in partnership in the fight for reproductive rights and what people of faith can do to build resilience and maintain hope. The panel includes Rev. Rob Keithan from All Souls Church Unitarian, Jamie L. Manson from Catholics for Choice, and Dora Muhammad from the AWARE Project. This event was held on June 26, 2023 in partnership with National Council of Jewish Women.
