Thanks for writing this, Randy. I never met Reuben, but I knew about his work, and I did know Annette a little bit. They are real pioneers, and importantly, were wiling to own up to mistakes and misunderstandings in their early careers.

The growing of medical care and maternity wings available to women is very disturbing but expected. The rate in Indiana, where baby boxes reign supreme, is horrifying. But then we have so-called pro-lifers who love to preach, especially online, “if you don’want to get pregnant then don’t ae sex.” One that I talk to goes so far as to mourn babies yet unconceived. Apparently, there’s not enough sex going on out there. TheUS is beyond broken,and I see it getting worse.
