Summary

This week's remarkable person is Dr. Jennifer Kerns, an OBGYN and associate professor at the University of California San Francisco. The news of a potential overturn of Roe v. Wade has sent shockwaves across the nation, with many people taking to the streets in protest. The implications of such a decision are dire, as it could endanger the lives of those seeking medical care and set a dangerous precedent for further attacks on reproductive rights.
