What THEY don’t want you to know:

Women don’t actually need the state to tell us when and how to abort unwanted pregnancies. We have that knowledge in our communities and it’s time to start sharing it with one another. Fuck these wack ass legislators!
There are birthing and abortion doulas, my loves.

Specifically when it comes to Black women, these systems have NEVER been in the business of making sure we have healthy and safe births and abortions.

It’s long past due for us to put resources behind handling our own care.
We need to destigmatize the idea of the “back alley abortion” in 2019 and actually invest in teaching people who can become pregnant how to access abortions beyond the medical industrial complex.

This too is Sex Ed.
F*ck telling people to call these trash elected officials. Organize to teach us how to access the care we need!
