@MarineSciComm @DrRJefferson @MarSocSci @ConSocSci @SCB_SSWG @EnvSociology @NESS_aus This summer we did in-person surveys of freshwater anglers. Small scale, 154 surveys, 88% acceptance. Creel-type surveys typically have high rates, right? So this might be a little on the low end

Wealthy white women will have zero trouble getting abortions and/or birth control. It’ll be the poor black and brown women living in red states who will be effected by this the most.

If this was about babies, there would be universal healthcare. Free education. Free daycare. Southern states would be doing all they can to drop the Black maternal mortality rate. This is about power and control
