The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 11, 2017

Carol Sanger, professor of law at Columbia Law School and author of About Abortion: Terminating Pregnancy in Twenty-First-Century America (Harvard University Press, 2017), explores why the issue of abortion still remains a hotly contested political and moral issue.
