When the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the national right to an abortion a year ago, it shook efforts to legalize and make abortions safer in Africa.

The role of Russia and China on the continent of Africa is discussed. The impact of christian right-wing groups on anti-LGBTQ+ laws and anti-abortion laws in African countries. Explorations in the undersea and outer space as a tourism business model is questioned. The spate of new laws including permit-less gun carry in Florida is discussed as well as the right-wing trend of the U.S. Supreme Court reversing 50-plus years of progress especially on Affirmative Action in college admissions.
