This is the Radio Boston rundown for July 22. Tiziana Dearing is our host:
- In the aftermath of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Massachusetts has seen congressional delegates getting arrested and the state Legislature debating over late-term abortions. Suffolk University law professor Renee Landers, and Michael Curry, CEO of the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers, help us understand what's transpired.
- Writer Isaac Fitzgerald talks about his new memoir, a confessional which traces his journey from an at-times violent childhood in north central Massachusetts, to forgiveness.
- WBUR's senior arts and culture reporter Cristela Guerra tells us four things we can check out this weekend, from a silent puppet show to readings of plays by local playwrights.
