Here are your marching orders for the week: 1. Listen to the latest episode of our Feminist Buzzkills Live! Pod
Your Buzzkills break down the 23 states that will eviscerate abortion access once SCOTUS lays down their ruling, and show you what kind of support programs they have in place for all these people forced to give birth.
SPOILER ALERT: UGH…
PLUS: We drag Ted Cruz, who has NEVER lifted a finger to help actual children, yet found time to grandstand at a press conference in Washington, DC held by those ghouls who stole fetuses from God knows where, pretending there is someone OTHER THAN THEM who has committed a crime.
And AAF super supporter Dina Nina stops by! Dina, a transgender speaker, comedian, and actor, stops by to talk surviving the pandemic, getting back onstage and the joys of happy pills.

An Indie Clinic Needs Your Help!
Sound the alarm! Bristol Regional Women’s Center is located in a small city that’s half in Tennessee and half in Virginia. For many people in Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, and North Carolina this is their closest clinic and the owners want to make sure people in Appalachia can continue receiving abortion care post-Roe. In order to do this, they need to move their abortion services to an office on the Virginia side of the border. | |
They are raising $75,000 to open a second office and purchase the necessary equipment to be able to offer abortion care compliant with Virginia’s state laws. You can donate to their GoFundMe at this link! After you do make sure to share the link on social media to encourage your friends to give. 3. Gather your people and get your Operation Save Abortion House Party registered!!!
Are you filled with all-consuming rage that clinics are having to move across state lines and maneuver their way into continuing to provide care? Then, join us on Sunday, July 17th for Operation Save Abortion! Our Direct Action panel discussion will be all about how to be visible, loud, creative, and de-stigmatizing in your abortion activism. | |
AAF’S very own Lizz Winstead will moderate this interactive session that includes AAF’s Moji Alawode-El, and Molly Gaebe, Erin Jorgensen from Shout Your Abortion, Viva Ruiz from Thank God For Abortion, and Rockie Gonzalez from the Austin Justice Coalition and Frontera Fund. If you haven’t already signed up and texted everyone you’ve ever met in your entire life asking them to sign up, then what are you waiting for??? Sign up here! If you value the work of AAF, we could always use a coupla two, three bucks tossed in the coffers and you can do that by clicking this shiny button! | |
