Summary

Inez Stepman is a senior policy analyst at Independent Women's Forum, has over a decade of experience in education policy, and also handles issues related to the definition of sex in law and culture. She sits down with Bridget to discuss why you can't sit out the culture war in this day and age because it will come through your door, how we get a false sense of security from people who are defecting from the hard, woke Left, when in fact their ideals are being insitutionalized at a rapid pace, why it's going to get worse before it gets better, and the overturning of Roe v. Wade which happened the day they sat down to talk. They cover the legal ground the case was based on, the complexities and nuances of the abortion debate, and where both sides of the debate run into trouble. Check out Inez's podcast High Noon , featuring conversations that make possible a free society.
