In a new op-ed for The Progressive Magazine, Kristen L. Burke argues that, in the current political climate, characterized by cascading threats to reproductive healthcare and autonomy, we must secure the right to contraception.
Burke writes: “Ensuring that people can use their desired contraception should be a priority for many reasons: the extraordinarily high maternal mortality rate, particularly for Black women; the increasing obstacles to obtaining an abortion; and the reality that there is not one method that works for everyone.”
