Our own @HaalaBeeba sharing her reflections on the recent #RoeVsWade U.S. supreme court decision to overturn abortion rights for women. #womenshealth #reproduction #laws #abortion
shorturl.at/avAPX My thoughts on the repealing of the #RoeVsWade decision which gave women the right to abortion under the U.S. federal Constitution. The latest decision raises so many concerns, one of them being: Are laws guaranteed? Please watch & share my video.
