A Couple’s Memoir of Providing Abortions Before, After, and During Roe

from All Of It with Alison Stewart · host WNYC

[REBROADCAST FROM Oct. 3, 2024] Before Roe v. Wade, Dr. Curtis Boyd decided to dedicate his career to providing safe, but illegal, abortions in Texas and New Mexico. It was at one of those clinics that he met his wife, Glenna Halverson-Boyd, who became a counselor to women seeking an abortion. The couple write about their decades of providing abortion care and advocacy in their new memoir, We Choose To: A Memoir of Providing Abortion Care Before, After, and During Roe. The Boyds join us to discuss as part of our political book series, Get Po-Lit-ical. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
