Best of 2023: Roe v Wade shocked the world. What's happened since?

Today, we're bringing you an episode from our archive. For nearly 50 years, women in the United States were protected, by federal law, from having to carry an unwanted pregnancy. They gained this right, in 1973, thanks to the historic Supreme Court judgement in the Roe v Wade case.  This held until nearly a year ago, when the current Supreme Court overturned that judgement. This weekend marks the one year anniversary of that groundbreaking decision.  So, what has life in the United States been like for women since then?  On this episode, North American correspondent Farrah Tomazin on how this decision has caused a seismic shift in American culture and its political landscape.
