ALL OF COMSTOCK MUST GO.

Comstock went after “obscenities,” yes abortion but also birth control, sex workers, pornography, & sex toys. (He really hated sex toys!) A piecemeal approach will not liberate abortion. We must protect freedom of sex, sexual expression, and obscenities.

boston university is now calling striking graduate workers into the judicial affairs office for trumped up charges and threatening censure, suspension, and expulsion

@BU_Tweets isolating and retaliating against workers demanding a living wage is pure cowardice!

[Prism @prismreports]

Reproductive justice is an international human rights framework, so why are groups getting pushback for supporting Palestine? @NicoleFroio spoke to eight abortion support orgs who say speaking out about Palestine is in line with their work.

[Jamila Perritt MD MPH @Reprorightsdoc]

Anti-abortion legislation and anti-trans legislation are inextricably linked. Abortion advocacy must include trans advocacy.

[Laura Portuondo @LauraPortuondo]

Nothing says democracy like a court reviving an abortion law passed before women or people of color were allowed to vote.

[BU Grad Workers @gradworkersofBU]

In an email sent out to BU faculty, @BU_Tweets is now suggesting that professors use AI to scab for graduate workers! Our students deserve better! Give us a fair contract so we can get back in the classroom!
