Anissa Durham says her reporting showed her "Access to care is awful in this country." It's so expensive to get an organ. A heart transplant is $1M+ and if you don't have health insurance, you can't even get on the transplant list. Read the whole series here: wordinblack.com/on-borrowed-...

Reproductive justice must include disability justice. 6/10 disabled women live in states with abortion bans, and getting care can be even harder for them. Any solution to make abortion access real has to work for everyone who needs it.
