Notes
Description
"Abortion helpline, this is Lisa is a powerful short documentary that expresses how economic stigma and cruel legislation determines who in America has access to abortion. At a women's health fund in Philadelphia, phone counselors--all called Lisa for anonymity--arrive each morning to the nonstop ring of calls from people who are seeking to end a pregnancy they can't afford. In 1976, only three years after Roe v. Wade became the law of the land, the Hyde Amendment was enacted with the explicit intention of denying poor individuals--those receiving Medicaid--access to abortion. By giving voice to those affected by discriminatory policies, the film exposes how legislation like the Hyde Amendment ties access to abortion to economic status and denies reproductive justice."--from container.
