as people worry about such attacks on reproduction, let’s not avoid the fact that Gaza’s main fertility clinic was also ‘intentionally attacked and destroyed’ by Israel: www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/3/...
let’s not be selective about where reproductive violence is recognised & mourned.

Study shows over 5000 crossed borders in Europe to have abortions last year, but I'd put the numbers much higher. Plus 10,000s self manage abortions with pills or other methods. Many can only do this with help from grassroots, underresourced abortion funds and stretched mutual aid groups.

Here, @dranastevenson.bsky.social and I ask why feminists used the concept of 'female sexual slavery' in the 1970s-80s?
how was it indebted to older ideas of 'white slavery?'
how was it repurposed beyond those ideas?
what does it say about power?
