ALBANY, N.Y. (Sept. 18, 2018) -- In August, Argentina's Senate narrowly defeated a bill to legalize abortion. Barbara Sutton, an associate professor in the Department of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, spent the summer in Buenos, Aires, Argentina, tracking the abortion-rights movement.

In this week's UAlbany News Podcast, Sutton shares the remarkable story behind the bill that galvanized activist groups throughout Latin America and set reproductive rights to the top of Argentina's legislative agenda.
