Who I'd like to meet: Before the legalization of abortion in 1973, thousands of women died from complications resulting from illegal abortions in the USA. Currently, the Alan Guttmacher Institute estimates that 80,000 women die annually from unsafe, illegal abortions.
The title of this documentary, "The Coat Hanger Project," evokes a memory of what almost became the only abortion alternative for women in South Dakota.

Love your site - keep getting the word out. Some teenager in Colorado is trying to get signatures declaring any clump of cells in a uterus to be a "child". Save us from this fundie madness!
I miss you, too, lady! Everything in Vermillion is grand, except the having to go back to school part. We got a lot of book work done over break, though, so it's all good. Take care! If I could send you chai through the mail, I would!
