The Crusade Against Reproductive Rights

Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court’s landmark decision establishing a woman’s right to an abortion, was issued 41 years ago. For decades, conservatives and the religious right have campaigned against it, and recently, their efforts are finding some success. Bill Moyers talks about the politics of reproductive freedom with Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
