Show Notes

The month of March is Women’s History Month. For this milestone 130th episode of our podcast, we put the spotlight on a remarkable woman who we recently lost: Sarah Weddington, who made an enormous contribution to history as a successful litigator in the landmark Roe V. Wade case, and who passed away last December. She appeared in a 1970's episode of The Human Condition, the radio series produced by the Hogg Foundation from 1971 to 1983. We have reproduced this episode for a wide-ranging discussion of Weddington's life and legacy. We are joined by Dr. Laurie Green, professor of history at The University of Texas at Austin.
