Josseli Barnica, was denied the immediate emergency medical care she needed when she went to the hospital experiencing a miscarriage. The delay in care cost Josseli her life.
After arriving at the hospital she was told that, “They had to wait until there was no heartbeat, It would be a crime to give her an abortion.”
Josseli was forced to suffer for 40 hours before she was given necessary medical care, at which point she had developed an infection which she would not survive.
Josseli died because she was denied prompt emergency medical care. She should have been given an immediate abortion, but instead she was denied such care because of the unethical laws which deny women life saving care in Texas.

whenever i see older women asked what they would have done differently as a young adult, the answers are overwhelmingly something along the lines of: "i would have set more boundaries and not constantly put myself last" and the answers from older men to young men is...different.
I need people to remember that a black man won the popular vote twice and a woman won the popular vote once but lost bc (among other things) of electoral college/bad strategy. Do not let people say this country won’t vote for a woman. The majority of voters literally did lol.
So!
It wasn’t a democrat.
It wasn’t an illegal immigrant.
It wasn’t an LGBTQ person.
It wasn’t an African American.
It wasn’t anyone he said is poisoning the blood of Americans.
He was white young and a registered republican.
The last two times I’ve ordered an americano (from two different places!!), I’ve been gaslit into thinking that milk is an integral part of the drink?? And they look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them no milk 😩
Watching Luke Combs sing beside Tracy Chapman with such obvious reverence makes the difference between appropriation and appreciation crystal clear.
When someone engages source material in a spirit of love, it shows.
Count all the ways he centers her, not himself 👇🏾
