Dehumanization turns into attempts at mass expulsion, that turns into concentration camps which turn into labor camps which turn into death camps. Once a world power starts down this road, it takes the rest of the world to stop it.
Mississippi introduces a bill allowing chattel slavery. Life imprisonment for “illegal aliens” solely for being undocumented.

There are lots of convos about what Biden could do for repro freedom but no one is enthusiastic because we assume he will squander the potential. We don’t even know if restoring anyone’s basic rights besides his son’s are on his mind. The admin used us to create their repro roundtables and now 🤷🏽♂️
Hunter Biden got a pardon before Leonard Peltier.
The Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, Mother FUCKING Theresa, all the Indigenous tribes, every peace activist, etc. for decades have asked for at least his death sentence to be commuted.
Nope.

As Floren, of Justice Through Empowerment, said, “No one should ever have to call an abortion fund to get an abortion. Planned Parenthood is concerned with development and growing the organization. Our goal is to not have to exist.”

"I'm feeling the panic from people who are in areas that maybe haven't experienced what we've experienced as far as barriers go," Floren noted. "The reality is that we as a community can figure out how to take care of one another."

Did you know that the best way to support abortion funds is to donate DIRECTLY to them? Large, national organizations (yes, including NNAF) do not fund abortion like we do and your donations may not ever make it to local funds or abortion seekers. Give locally!
