When men hear ‘My body, my choice’ the take away for many of them is that it is not their issue to speak about but according to pro-choice advocates the truth of the matter is it is everyone’s. So the voice that should be amplified is the voice of the people that will be most affected by the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and for that we wanted to speak with an expert on reproductive rights. Rebecca Gibron, the CEO of Planned Parenthood Great Northwest recently joined Regionally Speaking host Dee Dotson to discuss the role everyone must play to advocate for reproductive rights.

As co-host and producer of Regionally Speaking, Dee is responsible for connecting with northwest Indiana community newsmakers to share their stories with the Lakeshore Public Radio listening audience. She believes in the power of storytelling to engag, teach and change lives. Prior to working at Lakeshore Public Radio, Dee enjoyed giving her time, talent, and resources to various community organizations. Dee believes in servant leadership. Her favorite quote is "Leadership is service not position." by Tim Fargo.
