Abortionsplaining with Renee Bracey Sherman and Regina Mahone

Hey well read baddies, surprise! This week we’re bringing you a powerful bonus episode in honor of Sexual Health Awareness Month. We sit down with journalist Regina Mahone and activist Renee Bracey Sherman, the brilliant co-authors of Liberating Abortion: Claiming Our History, Sharing Our Stories, and Building the Reproductive Future We Deserve. As the first book on the history of abortion written by two Black women who’ve had abortions, Liberating Abortion is part history, part storytelling, and part call to action. Together, Regina and Renee share their own reproductive journeys, the impact of abortion stigma, and why centering real stories is essential to shaping a just future. Because being well read means being well informed—let’s talk about the stories that shape our reproductive futures.
