As we mark the first anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, we continue our interview with Amy Littlefield, abortion access correspondent for The Nation. In a special issue called “Body Politics,” her article is “'The Message They've Received Is That You Don’t Deserve to Be Cared For’: Life on the Abortion Borderland.” One of the activists she profiles is Reverend Erika Ferguson, an interfaith minister for over 20 years, who started the Tubman Travel Project after Texas banned abortions after six weeks of pregnancy. She also discusses the role of the ban’s architect, Jonathan Mitchell, her reporting in New Mexico, the overall state of abortion access nationwide, and how the forefront of abortion rights activism is at the state level with ballot initiatives.
