Season 2 Episode 9 - Jamie Lombardi on the Philosophical Case for Abortion Rights

Philosophy professor Jamie Lombardi joins Ben to talk about "heartbeat bills" and other current threats to abortion rights, and to revisit the arguments in classic papers on the subject by Don Marquis ("Why Abortion is Immoral"), Judith Jarvis Thomson ("A Defense of Abortion"), and Margaret Olivia Little ("Abortion, Intimacy, and the Duty to Gestate"). Jamie is starting a chapter of Corrupt the Youth (https://corrupttheyouth.weebly.com/) at her college and raising money for Garden State Equality (https://gardenstateequality.rallybound.org/JamieLombardi).
