New single “Baby Roe” out today! Listen here.
The song "Baby Roe” is a direct descendent of the book “The Family Roe” by Joshua Prager. This finely researched and grippingly told work chronicles the unfolding of events surrounding the 1973 supreme court decision Roe V. Wade. Prager lets you way behind the curtain to meet all the characters involved, including the adult child of Norma McCorvey (aka Jane Roe), born and adopted-off in the course of her mother’s quest for the right to a legal abortion. Baby Roe, unaware of her role in history until she was an adult, remains, nonetheless, in support of a woman’s right to choose. As I would be. There is no tragedy in not being born into a particular body, at a particular time. We are all born many times, into many bodies, and life is much longer than the ego would have us believe. It is infinite, in fact. –ani
