S1 E14. Woman and The Morality of Abortion: Dr. Willie Parker, Life's Work
Manage episode 330787705 series 3317452
In this episode, I talk with Christian reproductive justice advocate and abortion provider Dr Willie Parker about his book, Life’s Work: A Moral Argument for Choice
Morals, religion and the principles of right and wrong are often cited by the anti-abortion community as a reason to deny women and pregnant people this basic medical care. Using his personal experience and a deep understanding of the medical, ethical and social issues, Dr Willie Parker - OBGYN, abortion provider and lifelong Christian - makes the powerful moral case for championing reproductive rights.
Some topics of discussion include:
- His upbringing in the Deep South and how his race and religion have influenced his perspective of what his patients are going through
- His decision to start performing abortions, moving from not doing them to seeing it as his moral duty and calling in life
- What the Bible says about abortion... or lack thereof
- The women who find themselves in need of his services, along with what will happen to them after Roe v Wade is overturned
- What gives him hope for the future
And more!
