BY ROXY SZAL | It’s been six months since Texas’s chilling six-week abortion ban took effect. And the Women’s Health Protection Act—which would codify abortion rights into law and supersede state-level restrictions—was dead on arrival during its Senate debut on Monday.

The Period Project: Menstrual Equity in Schools [[link removed]]
BY NASSIM ALISOBHANI and EMILY SPEARS | In the last of our three-part series on menstrual equity, highlighting our Period Project research study and forthcoming Period Project Report Cards, we report on schooling and access to menstrual products.
Within the last five years, over a dozen states passed laws to require that menstrual products be made available free of charge in at least some schools—up from zero. State laws requiring access to menstrual products free of charge represent a crucial component of ending period poverty and achieving menstrual equity.
Karen V. Hill, Director of the Harriet Tubman Home: ‘She Was Able To Separate the Brutality of Slavery From How She Loved the Land’ [[link removed]]
BY JANELL HOBSON | Karen V. Hill is president and CEO of the Harriet Tubman Home, Inc. in Auburn, N.Y. She has successfully pursued federal legislation to have Harriet Tubman’s homestead become one of the newest units of the National Park Service.
“To me that’s just startling, that this place in Maryland where she had been treated so harshly, she was able to separate the brutality of slavery from how she loved the land.”
Launching Tuesday, Feb. 1, and culminating on March 10, the Harriet Tubman Bicentennial Project [[link removed]] pays tribute to this feminist icon with a special commemorative issue through Ms . online and in print. Explore the interactive groundbreaking site here [[link removed]] .
