Episode Synopsis

Sarah Thompson and Elayne Richard bring decades of experience and unwavering dedication to reproductive rights and social justice advocacy. As active members of Grandmothers for Reproductive Rights (GRR), one of our newest member organizations, they are working to challenge the shame and stigma surrounding abortion access as healthcare while empowering elders to harness the power of their voices. Their experiences have deepened their appreciation for the impact of sharing lived stories from the pre-Roe v. Wade era and, as Elayne puts it, the “wicked cool” intergenerational relationships fostered by grandma magic.
