When it comes to the media’s depictions of abortion, what we most often see may not accurately depict the reality of people’s experiences with abortion.

Our country is supposedly the “land of the free” and yet women’s choices about their reproductive health and autonomy are being forced by a government that is in turn influenced by certain religions.

On June 20, a joint investigation from The Intercept Brazil and the website Portal Catarinas found that an 11-year-old (who has remained anonymous) had not only been denied an abortion after becoming pregnant as a result of rape but was also separated from her mother, who was vocal about terminating the pregnancy, and sent to foster care.

Even before Roe v. Wade was overturned, reproductive choice in the United States was reserved for those with the appropriate social and financial resources.

For the first time in my young life, I feel well and truly hopeless.

On March 8, while many celebrated International Women’s Day, Guatemala’s Congress approved the “Ley para la Protección de la Vida y la Familia” (Law for the Protection of Life and Family), which would punish abortion with up to 10 years in prison.

The Texas abortion bill SB8, which passed on September 1, 2021, prohibits and criminalizes abortion after a fetus’ heartbeat is detected.
