Rosita: Debate about Abortion

January 22, 2006 Sunday 2PM CT ( listen)
Countries in Latin America have some of the most restrictive abortion policies in the world. Some are so severe that even a nine-year-old girl who was raped could not receive one. This hour, on Here on Earth, join Jean Feraca and her guests for a discussion of "Rosita," a documentary about a child's struggle for reproductive rights.

Guest

  • Barbara Attie, producer of "Rosita"
  • Anu (ah-NEW) Kumar (koo-MAR), executive director of Ipas, a watch-dog organization for women's reproductive rights.
  • Gina Sardi, translator for the documents used in the making of "Rosita"
