Supreme Revenge: Battle For The Court
The Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade this year, marking an end of nearly half a century of the constitutional right to abortion. As states establish their own abortion guidelines and restrictions, there’s no question that women of color will be disproportionately affected. At NJPAC’s community event, the panel will discuss the impact on Black and Brown communities in the context of the documentary ‘Supreme Revenge: Battle for the Court,’ which shows how our nation’s highest court solidified its conservative majority.
