"Between 1993 and 2011, prochoice groups lay dormant and defeated after slowly losing whatever access used to exist on PEI. After Morgentaler lost his lawsuit against the island, there was virtually no more public discourse on the subject. That changed in 2011, when a group of five women in their twenties (known collectively as the PEI Reproductive Rights Organization, or PRRO) challenged the government and started making noise. Since then, after...

"While Roe v. Wade is a household name in America, few are aware of the impact of Planned Parenthood v. Casey, the Supreme Court's 1992 ruling that preserved but redefined and substantially limited abortion rights, especially for the most marginalized women. Casey rather than Roe has established the constitutional standards that today govern abortion in the U.S. When pundits talk about the reversal of Roe, they really mean the reversal of Casey. Within...

"Five women. One question. What is a woman for? In this ferociously imaginative novel, abortion is once again illegal in America, in-vitro fertilization is banned, and the Personhood Amendment grants rights of life, liberty, and property to every embryo. In a small Oregon fishing town, five very different women navigate these new barriers alongside age-old questions surrounding motherhood, identity, and freedom. Ro, a single high-school teacher, is...

Description
3,000 years ago, King David wrote The Book of Psalms-150 hymns in praise of God that became famous the world over. Now, with humanity on the verge of a self-generated catastrophe, God (with the help of another David) has decided to return, and reverse, the favor. He has written a cornucopia of insults of the human race in the form of prose, poetry, and parody. Their topics are as diverse as COVID, Trump, racism, abortion, meth, math, and, on a lighter...

In this crusade, pregnant women are subject to state control, surveillance, and punishment. Even women who don’t want an abortion face shocking risks—like the pregnant woman in Alabama who faced criminal charges for taking half a Valium. Or like the grieving...
