Who Killed Roe?

Who Killed Roe?

Roe v. Wade is dead, but who was the murderer? In this episode, Kim and Rose sit down with journalist Amy Littlefield, author of the new book Killers of Roe: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Abortion Rights to trace the decades-long effort to dismantle federal abortion protections—and what that history means for the future of reproductive rights in the United States.


This is the last episode of season 5. We will be taking a short break and then Kim and Rose will be back, speaking with the movers and shakers defining the feminist movement. To find out more about the National Organization for Women, visit our website.
