Retrieved on: 
Friday, June 24, 2022

"Roe was a significant step toward a more equitable society in which Black women had access to the autonomy and agency they have traditionally been denied. But by overruling nearly fifty years of legal precedent, the Court has turned the clock back on decades of progress made by Black women in America -- and fanned the flames of a deadly public health crisis in the process.

Key Points: 
  • ATLANTA, June 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Michelle Webb, Chief Communications Officer of the Black Women's Health Imperative, issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that affirmed every woman's constitutional right to seek an abortion:
    "We at the Black Women's Health Imperative are disheartened and angered by the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
  • But it marks the beginning of a new public health crisis for Black women.
  • "Given that Black women tend to live in states hostile to reproductive healthcare, Roe's overturn directly endangers Black women's lives by exacerbating pre-existing access restrictions.
  • About the Black Women's Health Imperative:
    The Black Women's Health Imperative is the first and only national non-profit organization created for and by Black women dedicated to improving the health and wellness of our nation's 21 million Black women and girls -- physically, emotionally, and financially.
