In response to the Supreme Court’s shocking overturning of Roe v. Wade on Friday, ESPN anchor Malika Andrews took a moment to speak on the decision during NBA Today.
“Today, the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade, declaring that the constitutional right to abortion, upheld for nearly a half-century no longer exists,” Andrews said. “In less than 24 hours, we celebrated equal rights for women, and now we react to women’s reproductive rights being taken away.”
The monumental reversal eliminated the constitutional right to abortion, eradicating the landmark law that protected women’s reproductive rights since 1973.
