For a month I investigated and wrote a story about @NPCWomen's response to the overturn of Roe, the unavoidable health repercussions for sorority members, and white women’s complicity in the state of reproductive rights for @hereandnow. wbur.org/hereandnow/2022/08/…

Sorority members speak out on the overturn of Roe v. Wade, even when their organizations don’t

Since the decision, sorority members have begun organizing, writing letters and pushing leadership to address an issue many see as essential to their health and rights.
