DESCRIPTION:Join The Guardian Live for panel discussion on the repeal of the landmark 
 Roe V Wade decision and what this could mean for the U.S. and 
 globally.\n\nDate & Time: Wednesday, July 6 @ noon PT (8 PM 
 London)\n\nRSVP: 
 https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/what-would-the-end-of-abortion-rights-in-america-mean-for-the-world-tickets-358372139717\n\nThis 
 event will be hosted on a third-party live streaming platform Zoom. Closed 
 captions will be available for this event. \n\n\nWhen Justice Samuel 
 Alito’s abrasive 98-page draft calling for the end of federal abortion 
 rights in America was leaked to Politico, it threatened to reverse a 
 historic victory of the global women’s movement. \n\nAbortion has been 
 legal throughout the US for nearly a half century, since the Supreme 
 Court’s 1973 landmark Roe v Wade decision. If the Supreme Court overturns 
 this ruling later this summer, abortion will be banned in dozens of US 
 states, and anti-abortion forces around the world may feel empowered to 
 enact new restrictions elsewhere, with fatal consequences for the poorest 
 communities and for reproductive freedom everywhere.\n\n--What comes next? 
 \n\n--Will we see increased criminalization of abortion in the US? Will 
 other rights, such as marriage equality and IVF access, be targeted next as 
 Christian fundamentalists gain further traction in US politics? \n\n--How 
 will this ruling impact US Congressional elections later this year given 
 that more than seven in 10 Americans oppose the overturning of Roe v 
 Wade?\n\nJoin our panel of speakers with chair, Guardian columnist, Arwa 
 Mahdawi; and Michele Bratcher Goodwin, director of the Center for 
 Biotechnology & Global Health Policy; with more to be announced.\n
