What will the future look like for low-income communities of color if the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade? In this Latino USA roundtable episode, Maria Hinojosa is joined by Laurie Roberts, executive director of the Yellowhammer Fund, an abortion fund and reproductive justice organization; Sabrina Rodríguez, national political correspondent at Politico; and Tina Vasquez, editor-at-large at Prism. They discuss the pre-existing barriers for marginalized communities to access abortion and how they could continue to be disproportionally impacted if the Supreme Court overrules Roe v. Wade, as well as the political implications of this decision during an election year.
