Join us to hear about the legal and philosophical arguments at the cutting edge of the abortion debate.
In her new book, 
Personhood
, UC Davis law professor Mary Ziegler argues that simply undoing 
Roe v. Wade
 has never been the endpoint for the antiabortion movement. Since the 1960s, she says, the larger goal has been to secure recognition of fetuses and embryos as persons under the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, a step that the modern antiabortion movement contends would make liberal abortion laws unconstitutional.
Ziegler chronicles the internal struggles and changing ideas about race, sex, religion, war, corporate rights, and poverty that shape the personhood struggle over half a century. She explores how Americans came to take for granted that fetal personhood requires criminalization and suggests that other ways of valuing both fetal life and women’s equality might be possible. She argues that the battle for personhood has long been about more than abortion: it has aimed to overhaul the regulation of in vitro fertilization, contraception, and the behavior of pregnant women; change the meaning of equality under the law; and determine how courts decide which fundamental rights Americans enjoy.

惡魔島

歷史建築

一數

惡魔島是舊金山灣中的一個石頭小島，靠近金門口，對着舊金山老城區，島周圍的景色很漂亮。因為小島周圍水很深，水流也很快，所以小島曾經是一個監獄。島上關押過上世紀美國最出名最危險的犯人，變得很出名，好萊塢還拍了電影，現在就成了舊金山灣里的景點。

金門公園

家庭友善景點

112***09

這是金門大橋附近的一個比較大的公園，就叫金門公園，一般遊客不會特地去這景點，因為我們是自由行 可以比較放鬆地遊覽，這公園環境設計都無與倫比，值得打卡觀光。

九曲花街

Ase0

這麼有錢的街剛剛充滿歷史。九曲花街一定是一個非常適合居住的地方。樹木是那麼綠，街道是那麼乾淨。它使起居區如此美好，讓您不想離開。丹弗朗西斯科的山也讓我驚嘆不已，很多電影都是在這裡拍攝的。例如「懷疑小姐之火」等等。華納兄弟真是太幸運了！
