She was 9 weeks pregnant. She died. The state of Georgia is making the doctors keep her alive to incubate the baby. She’s been dead for three months. This is REAL. this isn’t about what should or should not be done. This is about having a VOICE. This is about having a CHOICE.

We talked about what really causes homelessness (hint: not addiction or mental illness), how its true scale is systematically obscured, and how entire business models exist to squeeze profit from people’s desperation for a place to live.
