Wade, it scrambled the landscape of abortion access in America, including in ways that one might not entirely expect. Many conservative states made the procedure essentially illegal — that part was predictable. But there’s also been this striking backlash in blue states, with many of them making historic efforts to expand abortion access, for both their residents and for women living in abortion-restricted states. And this has created all kinds of new battle lines — between states, and states and the federal government — involving travel, speech, privacy and executive power. It’s an explosion of conflicts and constitutional questions that the legal historian Mary Ziegler says has no parallel in modern times. She’s the author of six books on reproductive rights in America, including “Roe: The History of a National Obsession,” and the Martin Luther King Jr. professor of law at the University of C Podcast episode

- Marjorie MillerRating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Exquisite. Beautiful. Toni Morrison reads this novel herself. It is worth listening to, for that reason only. She has true insight.
- monica_ollieRating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A wonderful book by a talented writer. Morrison’s writing is so good, it doesn’t try to ‘be’ anything. There’s no formula and nothing feels contrived. It’s such a breath of fresh air and somewhat of a rarity in modern literature. Just a fantastic story. And her narration is so beautiful. I could listen forever.
