Abortions don’t need to be made “rare” because there is nothing wrong with abortion.

Please donate to TX abortion funds first and foremost (secure.actblue.com/donate/tx…) but if you have extra, my org @AbortionStories could use some love. We’re people who’ve had abortions organizing to change the convo and care for each other.

Sending love and standing in solidarity with our Asian communities as they continue to weather unjust and terrifying violence. While I can never know the depths of the pain or fear y'all feel today, I mourn with you and I am fighting white supremacy alongside you. #StopAsianHate

A WORD OF ADVICE:
If you wanna say “Black,” say Black!
Not underrepresented
Not under-resourced
Not underprivileged
Not low income
Not inner city
Not urban
Not POC
If you wanna say “Black,” it’s okay to just say... Black. 😉👍🏽

The genocide and displacement of Indigenous communities because of colonization have caused atrocious historical harms that continue to persist to this day. This is a #reprojustice issue. #IndigenousPeoplesDay

All people should have the ability to decide if/when/how they become or stay pregnant. That’s it. That’s the tweet.

“Pro-life” lies can be stopped with a vigilant media. We’ve put together some pro-tips for writers who want to discuss abortion accurately in their work: reproaction.org/resource/abo…

#familymedicine = the best. What we can do:
* Primary care for babies, kids, adults, pregnant people
* Reproductive care - deliver babies, place IUDs, abortions, vasectomies
* Gender affirming care
* HIV care
* Addiction treatment
* Fight for health equity
What’d I miss? 💗

Did you know that 3/5 abortions in the U.S. are performed by independent clinics (not Planned Parenthood) & that they do 94% of procedures after 22 weeks??
It's important to support independent clinics bc they provide the large bulk of abortion care.
