FRONTLINE: The Abortion Divide

aptv.org

In The Moment ... April 23, 2019 Show 560 Hour 2

Thirty six years ago, FRONTLINE explored abortion in America in a groundbreaking investigation. Now, a new FRONTLINE returns to the originally featured abortion clinic in Philadelphia to meet the doctors, the protestors, and the women who believe their stories must be told.

From the bullet-proof glass to the RU-486 pill, much has changed in 36 years. But the debate remains the same. And in spite of advances in care for pregnant women seeking abortion and for women seeking pregnancy assistance, the debate over abortion itself is more divisive than ever.

FRONTLINE's The Abortion Divide airs tonight at 9 p.m. / 8 p.m. on SDPB TV.

Lori Walsh is the host and senior producer of In the Moment.
