13 dic 1971 anni - Roe v. Wade

Descrizione:

The Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision of 1973, which legalized abortion across the United States, was a very polarizing event that separated Americans. Abortion rights supporters saw the ruling as a great win for women, as well as an essential step toward achieving equality for all Americans. Those against abortion rights viewed the verdict as an attack on the value of life and classic moral standards, as well as an invasion of the unborn's constitutional freedoms. Since Roe v. Wade, political polarizers on both sides have used abortion to organize their respective views and skew public opinion. Anti-abortion activists have used legal tactics to try to limit the ruling, while pro-choice activists have pushed to uphold and increase access to abortion clinics. As a result, abortion continues to be a very controversial and polarizing subject in American politics, influencing public opinion and election outcomes at all levels.
