On this episode of The Breakdown, Andrea Montenegro talks with Paxton Smith, a women's reproductive rights activist who made national headlines earlier this year with her valedictory speech on Texas' Heartbeat Bill.

Smith, compelled to bring attention to what she felt was an infringement of her right to women's bodies, delivered an iconic speech that now has brought her many opportunities, including representing the pro-choice movement on a national stage and writing a book! Listen to learn more about the history of abortion from Smith's point of view, insight into her mentality when presenting the speech, a discussion about the book, and her thoughts on the future of the abortion debate.
