It's a she thing (IAST) podcast is a is a space where we're going to discuss hard hitting topics in a safe, fun, and cordial atmosphere. April's episode is going to focus mostly on legislative changes to abortion laws across the United States and globally and how that impacts Women's Health and social health care and social services systems. This podcast is usually narrated with a feminist lens, with vague attempts of neutrality including some opposing views but overall, we are pro-women. Articles relating to some of the statistics provided can e found at the links below and can also be found on some of the posts on the IAST Instagram page. So, if you have a chance or have very strong opinions about the subject, I just ask for you to be respectful, and uses these places to leave your comments so that we can begin to have a dialog to address change.
