This week Catrina tells Elle all about a modern Young Adult adaptation of Mansfield Park. Elle shares a list of great books by Indigenous authors to check out, including swooning romances, rom-coms, fiction, and poetry.
On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court decided that the historic ruling of Roe vs Wade should be overturned. This will send any laws regarding women's rights to abortion healthcare access to the states, many of which have already put in place extremely restrictive and dangerous trigger laws. Catrina and Elle take time to discuss their opinions on this ruling.
Elle also discusses abortion access and laws during the revolutionary war era up to the early 1800's. Would Jane Austen have had access to an abortion? Would it have been legal for her to get one?
