Argentina's Fight to Legalize Abortion with Barbara Sutton

UAlbany News Podcast

In August of 2018, Argentina's Senate narrowly defeated a bill to legalize abortion. Barbara Sutton, an associate professor in the Department of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, spent the summer in Buenos, Aires, Argentina, tracking the abortion-rights movement.

On this episode, Sutton shares the remarkable story behind the bill that galvanized activist groups throughout Latin America and set reproductive rights to the top of Argentina's legislative agenda.
