Episode 42: Controversy of Choice: Overturn of Roe V. Wade

In this episode, Kiana Yabut, Chief Development Officer of Famalao’an Rights, and Happy Tingson, a former Guam resident, join the cohosts to talk about an issue that is sweeping not only the nation but also Guåhan and its communities: abortion access rights for women and birthers.  Kiana offers her insight on how the overturn of Roe v Wade may affect Guam as an unincorporated territory of the US and the implications of the lack of these resources on our community. Happy shares her personal experience with having actually to make the choice. 

Famalao'an Rights is a reproductive justice initiative focused on addressing the need for accessible reproductive healthcare and education in Guam that began in January 2021. The organization is in the process of filing for non-profit status.
