| Abstract | The controversial court case Roe v. Wade [5] (1973) revolutionized the way women and the United States viewed reproductive freedom. The appellant of the case was Norma McCorvey [6], referred to in court documents as Jane Roe [7]. The appellee was Henry Wade [8], the Dallas Country District Attorney against whom McCorvey and others filed a class action suit in the District Court. The outcome of this case gave American women an equal right to privacy as well as autonomy over their pregnancies. Not only were birth control [9] issues brought to the forefront of public debate, but women came closer to gaining control over their reproductive rights [10]. |
