Riassunto

<div>2013 marks the fortieth anniversary of the Supreme Court&#8217;s abortion decision in Roe v. Wade, one of the most divisive rulings ever to shape American politics. In recent years, attempts to overturn Roe v. Wade have reached a fevered pitch. Since 2010, hundreds of bills banning or putting up roadblocks to abortion access, contraception, and basic women&#8217;s health have been proposed across the United States, with nearly one hundred new laws going into effect. The goal is to create a law that will eventually be brought before the Supreme Court in order to overturn Roe v. Wade.<br><br><i>Crow After Roe: How &#147;Separate But Equal&#8221; Has Become the New Standard In Women&#8217;s Health And How We Can Change That</i> examines eleven states&#151;Arizona, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, Texas, Utah and Washington DC&#151;that since 2010 have each passed a different anti-abortion or anti-women&#8217;s health law explicitly written to provoke a repeal of Roe v. Wade. The chilling effect of these laws has been to establish a reproductive health care system in these states that makes abortion legal in name only, and which places women&#151;especially poor, rural, or those of color&#151;into a separate health care class, with few choices or control. Featuring a foreword by Gloria Feldt.<br></div>
