Jennifer Kempf talks to Judith Arcana on Reproductive Rights

A veteran of the pro-choice movement, Arcana has experience in various approaches to ensure women’s access to reproductive health care. Before the Roe v. Wade decision made abortion legal in the U.S., Arcana was part of the underground Chicago abortion service called Jane. Jane facilitated more than 11,000 safe abortion procedures – many of the volunteers were abortion providers and sex-health educators.

She’s a writer, a teacher and an activist; and says what she wants in discussion, not posturing. She wants people from all backgrounds to come together and talk about women’s health and the politics around that.
