About this episode

In light of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's passing, hosts Dope KNife and Linqua Franqa detail the history of Roe v. Wade and the implications of the nomination of a conservative judge to the Supreme Court for millions of women across America. Abortion, however, is a complex topic within the world of Hip Hop, as reflected in the lyrical stylings of emcess from Doug E Fresh to Butterfly of Digable Planets to Common, Noname, and Illogic, representations which the hosts explore in this week's episode.
