Thursday December 1 From RiseUp4AbortionRights.org:
Manifest in green and protest nationwide at courthouses around the
country on Thursday December 1, the one-year anniversary of when the
Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case that overturned abortion
rights. Through speeches, dramatic bloody die-ins, and in other ways,
the protests should make clear that we cannot rely on the courts and
have to rely on ourselves to rise up to win legal abortion on demand
and without apology everywhere.

Love to the families of the victims of the Colorado Springs massacre and to the LGBTQ community in Colorado Springs, and nationwide being terrorized by fascist mobs and fascist violence. Sunday was the Trans Day of Remembrance. Saturday five people were killed and 18 injured in a shooting at Club Q, a Colorado Springs LGBTQ club during their drag divas night. The news from Colorado Springs is heartbreaking, infuriating, horrifying, and a painfully predictable outcome of the Republi-fascist war on LGBTQ plus folks very existence.
It is past time for uncompromising resistance to actively and visibly refuse fascism and fight for a world where people of all sexual orientations and genders thrive fully as their authentic selves.
