All those who identify as women to share in ESUC sisterhood through learning about reproductive justice history and how women helped women with direct assistance. We will show the film “The Janes.” They called themselves “Jane“–seven women who built an underground network by using code names, blindfolds and safe houses for women seeking safe, affordable, illegal abortions in 1970s Chicago. More timely than ever, this documentary offers first-hand accounts of these unlikely outlaws who risked everything in the pre-Roe v. Wade era, a time when abortion was a crime in most states.
