STARTING AT 1 PM! See you there! 💚💚💚💚💚 YES THERE’S A PRO-ABORTION PROTEST IN NYC THIS WEEKEND ‼️🏃‍♀️🌊💚 IMPORTANT: we’re rescheduling our Saturday counterprotest for October 9!! The antis have actually canceled because they can’t get a police escort this time?? Excuse us but….. I mean we KNOW that the church and state work together to control our repro labor and keep us in line, but guys, this is a little on the nose!?!? On August 14, two pro-abortion organizers in Brooklyn were arrested by the NYPD’s militarized Strategic Response Group for nonviolently counterprotesting a procession of antis on their way to harass patients at Planned Parenthood. The antis were led by Fidelis Moscinski, who’s been involved with easily more than half of all clinic invasions around the country in the past few years—but he gets an NYPD escort to lead antis to clinics here in New York. And as we saw on 8/14, the NYPD are glad to target and arrest our organizers on his behalf when he gets tired of us. swipe for a treat ➡️ 😻 wondering why we can’t do this to antis? when citizen cops and the state collude to coerce our reproductive labor — that’s not just the Texas bill, that’s the entire anti-abortion street movement, it’s decades ‼️ of well-organized and escalating street harassment, stalking, and violence all over the country. it’s fascist, and the only response is an antifascist one: OUR BODIES, OUR LIVES, OUR LABOR, OUR STREETS 🙅‍♀️🌈🌺💚 How is everyone doing? We feel the need to meet in person 🦋 💔 Can the Supreme Court effectively end legal abortion overnight? Can they deputize antis around the country to stalk anyone who’s gestating? It seems like they can do whatever they want ‼️ BUT THEY DEPEND ON OUR SILENCE. They depend on our lack of solidarity. Millions of us have abortions. But we’re not organized, mobilized, and making bold demands. That’s how we’ve gotten to this point. But that means IT’S UP TO US. IT’S IN OUR HANDS. ACTION ALERT: New Yorkers, abortion access is in crisis and the fight is in our community, too. Let’s go 🏃‍♀️ 🚨🚨🚨 yeah so the Archdiocese of New York’s witness for life leader Fidelis Moscinski led two clinic invasions this morning in philly and west chester. Impossible to imagine how much audacity it takes to claim victim status and call on (and receive!!!!) protection from nypd robocops because we show up on the sidewalk like once out of every dozen times this man heads to a clinic to tell us we’re murderers. Solidarity with patients and clinic workers in Pennsylvania this morning—everyone needs to see what’s happening and stand with you. Ty for getting the word out, @feministflagcorps
