[In our Weekend Roundup, we noted the American Historical Association’s webinar tomorrow on Dobbs. Here’s an announcement of another webinar on the decision, scheduled for Thursday and sponsored by the Organization of American Historians. DRE]
Register for the next Future of the Past webinar on Thursday, July 7, at 6PM ET. On June 24, 2022, in the case of Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution does not confer the right to abortion, overturning nearly 50 years of precedent established by both Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey (1992).
Join us on Thursday, July 7th at 6pm ET, as we examine the Dobbs v. Jackson decision in historical perspective. Erika Lee, OAH President and University of Minnesota, will host guests Gillian Frank, cohost of Sexing History, Felicia Kornbluh, University of Vermont, and Stacie Taranto, Ramapo College of New Jersey, in a conversation about the history leading to Dobbs and how the ruling could potentially impact other past SCOTUS decisions.
