>> pro-choice. >> pro-life. >> pro-choice. >> against all forms of violence, including abortion. >> court overturned roe v. wade. how are you feeling in one word? >> concerned. >> surreal. >> for me, more of the same. >> i guess would say not surprised. >> yeah, not surprised. >> feeling hopeful. >> i would say frustrated. empathetic, saddened, any of those. >> what does it mean personally? fact that supreme court overturned roe v. wade? >> frustrated for women who won't be allowed to have the choice. they're being told what to do by someone who doesn't know them or their circumstances. >> you can go to different parts of the country and different people want different things. i think best way to minister to women and give them what they need is having it be at state level. they have more control and are able to exercise more of their choice. >> what about you? >> i don't agree that the states
3:42 am
are going to do a better job because obviously many of the states have not. they're completely and outright banning abortion. >> for me, personally, there's been this huge focus on legality. right? it's never how are we helping the women on the ground, what is is the reason that people are actually getting abortions. >> more upset with the sprorkts f supreme court, decisin they made is not reflective of what americans, largely polled, indicated they believed. >> any of you have girlfriends or friends, here's where we find common ground? is it either/or? >> i changed stance on a position. came from low income background, only told this narrative that abortion is the way to go, and anyone against abortion doesn't like women, don't support women
3:43 am
and frankly that's not true. >> you reject the pro-life label? >> because it's come to mean so many things and the super mainstream movement is super hypocritical, there's no other way to say it. my viewpoints don't come from religion but fact that each human being is distinct and important and should be respected and valued. i'm against abortion in same way as police brutality and torturous acts within prisons and death penalty. >> seems like one thing you agree, whether on the left, right or in between, a lot more should be done for women and children. you're saying that antiabortion movement could be doing more. >> yeah, and should be and should have been the whole time. i'm so annoyed every time i hear now the real work begins.
3:44 am
no, you should have been doing it. >> what about the abortion rights movement? >> bigger problem is we can have all these conversations but when you have white christian male viewpoints making the decisions or ones loudest on tv and social media, that's the rhetoric that gets passed. we miss listening to other issues or figuring out things that surround this decision to support maternal health, prenatal, postnatal care. >> you're antiabortion. should the movement focus on changes laws in states like maryland or district of columbia or california to make it more restrictive? >> look at all these underlying issues that are the root causes of why people are having to make these decisions. danger in pushing for abortion is just like you, you don't think you have another option. you're just told this is what you do.
3:45 am
>> isn't that the opposite then? saying if you feel like other option is abortion. but if you take it away, only option is life, not giving a choice. >> will be decided state level in that sense, but i would say that -- >> but on the individual level. it takes that away from the mom or pregnant person. >> if beewe're not focusing on legal issue of abortion, perhaps focusing on other supports. >> i don't think any of us here is satisfied with how politicians don't do what we ask them to do, not listening to the problems. >> idea that now politicians get to decide this issue of abortion scare you? >> honestly, doesn't scare me. i tried to get involved in things that reflect the way i would like the world to be, and
3:46 am
i don't think that we consider enough how what we do in our daily lives can affect even the five of us here talking about abortion today. >> is that a positive thing? to be sitting here talking about this? >> it is a positive thing. i was a little concerned about coming here and found there is a lot of commonality in what we have to say. and hope the viewers actually listen to it and think about that, stop thinking about okay, do you have access, yes or no, but what about other things. those other things are much more important. >> i'm very impressed with each of the women i'm joined with today. don't like we've been pitted against each other when i feel we would be more powerful working together. >> i feel it's complex, i feel like pro-life movement is not doing enough and pro-choice movement is not doing enough to
3:47 am
support women and that's what's really important. that's not getting heard. i don't think any of us feel thatrt everyone's number one choice. right? would like to create a world -- but that's not what women want and need. look at it that way, i think there's common ground that we can come together on to try and teeacr ae world. >> the women we talked to are from maryland and washington, d.c., area, and we had this interview planned for friday morning before we knew the court was going to drop its decision overturning roe v. wade. when some of the women arrived at the hotel where we spoke with them, they had no idea that roe was history.
