 Join us for our free AHA Online event, “Abortion, Choice, and the Supreme Court: History Behind the Headlines,” on Wednesday, July 6, at 3 PM ET.

 This AHA Online event brings together four leading scholars to place *Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization* in historical context. How did we get here from *Roe v. Wade* (1973)? Why is history central to this jurisprudence and its implications?
