Judy Waterman is one of countless American women whose plans were hijacked by unplanned pregnancy and no way to get an abortion, in Judy’s case, in 1969, just as she was about to start graduate school. Judy talks with Cathy Silber about that time and the very real threats to women’s freedom and equality posed by the likely Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe.
