What a difference a Black woman on the Supreme Court could begin to make

When Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer leaves the bench this summer, he'll likely be doing so just as the Court releases its ruling on Mississippi's abortion ban, one that could potentially threaten decades of precedents on abortion that Justice Breyer himself authored. The impact of this potential reversal of Roe v. Wade would be felt by people across the country -- particularly Black women, many of whom have led the charge against attempts by state lawmakers to control their bodies, lives and futures.
