The #ReproductiveJustice field is up against an extremely well-funded, well-resourced, and well-organized opposition.
We can't be afraid to be specific in naming that it's right-wing, Christian fundamentalist fascists pulling the anti-abortion strings.
“Patience is key, and the reproductive justice movement requires tenacity. Talking to so many of my mentors in the fight shows me why this is a lifelong battle for so many of us.” Kennedy Moore

An inclusive and equitable world is possible, but only if we respect and protect the rights of people with disabilities 🧡

Happy Pride Month! 🌈 reminder as we head into this wonderful month that the commercial visibility of Pride over the past few years has often excluded the voices of those most marginalized. 💗

For anyone who needs a reminder, abortion is still legal in NC‼️ Strict, additional restrictions will be implemented July 1st, but for now you can legally get an abortion in NC during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. #AbortionSavesLives#ProChoice#ProAbortion
BREAKING: The S.C. legislature just passed a ban on abortion after 6 weeks of pregnancy. The bill now heads to the governor, who is expected to sign the bill into law.
We have just one thing to say to the state of South Carolina: We'll see you in court.
South Carolina just passed their own abortion ban, banning abortion before many even know they’re pregnant. But it isn’t over. @PPSouthAtlantic will challenge the ban in court. 💥
Racial justice, and specifically Black liberation & safety, must lie at the center of our fight for reproductive justice.
Three years after the murder of George Floyd & the resurgence of the BLM movement, that statement is as true as ever.
So let’s talk about it.

NC GOP has overriden Governor Cooper’s veto. Monster bill restrictions will take effect July 1st. If you hear anyone calling this a 12-week ban, correct them. This was designed to gut access in this state, especially for people traveling. Absolute travesty.
