So eloquently said. First there was Russia attacking Ukraine, now the U.S. Supreme Court attacking women. Let’s get the stalled Equal Rights amendment passed.
I fought for it, my daughter fought to defend this, and now my 6 granddaughters will have to fight for it again. (One granddaughter works for Planned Parenthood.) Going to a rally tonight. So tired of this, and feeling defeated right now.
I so get this Sarah, I’m back on the protest/rally circuit again, with 3 daughters and 6 grandchildren, this is insane. good for granddaughter, she’s a hero.
mad as hell here. and so proud of your dad. a woman whose children I used to teach was the director of our county’s planned parenthood and was constantly under threats and once her office was ‘raided’ by the fbi sent by bush’s people.
Duuuuuuuuude it is so enraging. I don’t understand why we have to keep fighting for something that is our decision. I’m enraged that people who have no business deciding this get to decide this.
How is almost as scary as why. Poignant post, my friend!

For a view from the other side, the picture could be seen as faceless women never allowed to be born and live their own lives. What a terrible loss.
