Part 1: Roe v. Wade (1973) Abortion

Audio of the U.S. Supreme Court majority opinion in Roe v. Wade (1973). Does the Constitution recognize a woman's right to terminate her pregnancy by abortion? The Supreme Court of the United States said, "yes" in its 7 - 2 decision in Roe v. Wade. Nearly 50 years later, the Court overturned Roe v. Wade in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health (2022). In this special listener's library two-episode series, I read the original case: Roe v. Wade (1973).

*Note: The audio quality of the earliest episodes (like this one) is not the best. Sorry. Don't worry, the quality gets better in the episodes ahead as I learn the new skillset required.
