Stephen and Julia chat’s about the herbal abortifacients is incredibly timely with the recent fall of Roe v. Wade as we learn the history of abortion practices. Julia co-authored an article “Pennyroyal, Rue and ‘Hickry Pickory’”Herbal abortifacients are deeply rooted in American history” which is published in whetstone magazine volume 11.
Julia is the first in a series of guests we’re chatting with who have written for volume 11, so if you check out the magazine you can read along as the episodes air.
