Once again we have a perfect display of the personal being the political. This is a volatile time for abortion and reproductive rights, it is our responsibility to fight for our own rights, and not just take them for granted. Never before, since Roe v. Wade was passed, have we been so dangerously close to it's reversal. A reversal that if to come to fruition would devastate and entire generation of women that haven't had to fight for the right to control what goes on with their own body. Think about what restricting choice, restricting personal liberty, really means.
Tuesday I will be going to buy my copy of Ms. Magazine. In that purchase, I will be supporting every woman who chose to make herself vulnerable by publicizing her story. I will be supporting every woman who didn't feel safe enough to make her own choices public. And perhaps most importantly, I will be supporting every woman who has been in the position to choose. No matter what the out come, a choice. A personal choice.
Wouldn't it be cool if we, the American People, could clear every newsstand in town. Buy every single issue of Ms. that was published. Wouldn't it be even better if we, if YOU and I, could tell congress and the supreme court to keep their laws off of our bodies.
All it takes is a phone call.A life without liberty cannot be in pursuit of happiness.
