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. Sub-Saharan Africa has the world's highest rate of unintended pregnancies, and 77% of abortions are estimated to be unsafe. (AP Photo/Denis Farrell)

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.
