It is important to distinguish whether privacy or secrecy undergirds the silence that surrounds abortion, Carol Sanger writes in About Abortion: Terminating Pregnancy in Twentieth Century America. I look at the difference 👇🏽
Abortion concealment in contemporary society aligns not with privacy but with secrecy. That secrecy is a much darker, more psychologically taxing, and socially corrosive phenomenon than privacy,” Sanger says. feministgiant.com/p/essay-lies-s… #abortionstories
In 1998, when a referendum to decriminalize abortion in Portugal failed, artist Paula Rego made a series of works to highlight the "fear and pain and danger of an illegal abortion, which is what desperate women have always resorted to." #abortionstories
I had an "illegal" abortion in Egypt and a "legal" abortion in the U.S. It took me 25yrs to write about them. For as long as patriarchy shrouds abortion in silence, it stamps it with shame. Knowing that, I broke my silence and broke free of shame. 📷 @rerutled #abortionstories 
Patriarchy denies us ownership of our bodies, and isolates us through silence and shame.
Our #abortionstories are a way to say "I own my body." Our abortion stories are guiding stars out of isolation and towards solidarity and freedom from patriarchy. feministgiant.com/p/abortion-is-…

It took me 25 years to finally write about my abortions. I was inspired and encouraged by women of colour who had spoken of theirs, and who said they wished they saw more people who look like them in abortion narratives. feministgiant.com/p/essay-the-se…
Now that we know that the Supreme Court will overturn Roe v Wade...1/2

Remember the terrorist, the attorney general, and the Supreme Court justice--and the battalion of white, Christian women--who helped destroy abortion rights and build a theocracy feministgiant.com/p/essay-the-te… #RoeVWade #SCOTUS
Convicted terrorist Raychelle “Shelly” Shannon can claim that she firebombed a path for Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch, the face of te law that ended the federally protected right to an abortion, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who has dealt the deadly blow. #RoeVWade
I saw #Happening last night. Set in 1960s France and based on the Annie Ernaux memoir, it is the most vivid portrayal of (illegal) abortion I have ever seen and will stay with me. It is on general release via @IFCFilms in the U.S. May 6.
I know what it is like to have an "illegal" abortion. I wrote about it here and will be writing more about #Happening soon and The Janes, an upcoming @HBO documentary soon.

My essay is also available as an audio essay (click on the link above) and in Arabic.
I had my 1st abortion in Egypt, where abortion remains illegal in almost all cases. And my 2nd abortion in the U.S. where abortion rights are being gutted feministgiant.com/p/-?s=w

Looking forward to seeing #Happening via @IFCFilms tonight. I’ll be writing about this and forthcoming documentary about abortion via @HBO called The Janes soon
In 1996 I had an “illegal” abortion in Egypt and in 2000 I had a “legal” abortion in the United States.
These films about abortion are not abstract for me. They are real and harrowing and triggering. feministgiant.com/p/abortion-is-… #RoeVWade

And watching white, Christian women destroy Roe v Wade in the U.S. and help build a theocracy is enraging feministgiant.com/p/essay-the-te… #RoeVWade
Sad to see that Whitney Webb sold herself out to the controlled op theaterplay "Grand Jury" by Fuellmich's Mafia. I'm not buying her crocodile tears after her experiencing backlash for participating in this shit, rendering her work obsolete for me. Keep your tears, no remorse.

#HAPPENING NOW: Black Lives Matter/Defund the Police protestors at Boise City Hall. Counter protestors supporting police also here. Several hundred protestors on each side. Police have closed Capitol from Main to Idaho St because of crowd. More @KTVB
Overall peaceful, no major chaos but there have been a few shoving matches and several verbal confrontations between the two groups. "Black Lives Matter" and "Defund the Police" chants mixing with other sides "Blue Lives Matter" and "USA!" Chants.
More from the protests at city hall
