From Danger to Dignity: The Fight for Safe Abortion

From Danger to Dignity: The Fight for Safe Abortion is a 1995 documentary film directed by filmmaker, Dorothy Fadiman. The film weaves together two parallel stories: the evolution of underground networks that helped women find safe abortions outside the law, and the intensive efforts by activists and legislators to decriminalize abortion through legislative and judicial channels. This film combines rare archival footage with interviews that document the efforts of those who fought to break the silence, change the laws and end the shame which surrounded abortion when it was a crime. The film is the second of the Abortion Rights Film Trilogy.

The film features interviews with Dr. Jane Elizabeth Hodgson, Pat Maginnis, Constance Cook, Sarah Weddington, and archival footage featuring George M. Michaels.
