Abortion on trial, with Justyna Wydrzyñska and Chiara Capraro
This episode is brought to you as part of Amnesty International’s Write for Rights campaign – get involved: https://tinyurl.com/3usebvje
As almost every country in the world moves to steadily liberalise abortion access and women’s reproductive rights, four male presidents have done the opposite, making radical antidemocratic maneuvers to clamp down on women’s bodily autonomy.
Among them, the USA, where the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade and deprived a generation of women of a constitutional right that they had grown up with.
And Poland, where the Law and Justice Party has infiltrated the courts and virtually eradicated legal access to abortion. But October’s historic election overturned their majority, as women and young people flocked to the polls in record numbers. Abortion was centre stage in the campaigns and one woman’s case was at the heart of it all.
Justyna Wydrzyñska is appealing a criminal conviction for sending abortion pills to a desperate woman in an abusive relationship. She joins us in an exclusive interview about feminist solidarity, hope in hard times, and the empty promises of political campaigns.
We also hear from Amnesty International UK’s lead for Women’s Human Rights, Chiara Capraro, and US abortion rights activist Renee Bracey Sherman, about worldwide trends and mainstream media misinformation about abortion.

Customer Reviews
Amazing content
Deborah is a goddess. And such a trouper for consistently having to defend the musical Hamilton against not only racist comments from white men, but also comments from “feminists” who don’t think that Angelica Schuyler has any agency… thank you Deborah for consistently being the voice of reason in the room.
F-ing love this!
Y’all. This is so amazing and funny and thought-provoking. And f-big HYSTERICAL!!!!
Laugh *and* think!
Deborah Frances-White and her rotating cast of regular and special guests - comedians, musicials, and experts on many different issues around the world - always get me laughing, and thinking, both about issues I thought I knew about and sometimes about issues I hadn’t thought of before. This is one of my must-listen podcasts each week, especially when I need something to make me laugh.
I’d love to see a live show. DFW, please come to New York City!
