A person wearing a hat that says "Abortion. You Betcha."
Lizz Winstead in "No One Asked You," 2023.
Writer and comedian Lizz Winstead was a co-creator of The Daily Show, a television institution that premiered in 1996. Winstead also deploys comedy in a more directly activist fashion; since the 2016 election of Donald Trump, she has supported reproductive care and abortion clinic staff by touring the country with Abortion Access Front. Filmmaker Ruth Leitman was along to chronicle the campaign, resulting in the 2023 documentary No One Asked You. With the 2024 presidential election resulting in a reboot of 2016, the documentary could not be more timely.

Comedian, disruptor-extraordinaire Lizz Winstead (co-creator of The Daily Show), and Abortion Access Front crisscross the U.S. to support abortion clinic staff and bust stigma. Pop culture icons and next-gen comics fuel this six-year road film activating small-town folks to rebuild vandalized clinics, exposing wrongdoer politicians, anti-abortion extremists, media neglect as the race to the bottom ensues and our rights burn down. ‘No One Asked You’ is a bold call to action driven by the power of humor in social change, where joy prevails.
