Inside the Hive host Brian Stelter is joined by Amanda Becker, Washington correspondent for The 19th, to examine the battle over abortion rights in America, including a Florida ballot amendment that would overturn the state’s six-week abortion ban, Donald Trump’s shifting stances, and the Republican Party’s conflicting views about in vitro fertilization and fetal personhood. The two also discuss the origins of the politics around reproductive rights and how it’s impossible to disentangle abortion bans from the history of patriarchy in this country. Becker is the author of the forthcoming book You Must Stand Up: The Fight for Abortion Rights in Post-Dobbs America, and warns that the legal impact of abortions bans in Alabama, or anywhere, can impinge on the rights of those living in blue states.
