Dawn-Lyen Gardner Instagram – Dear family… today is hard for so many of us. Even if we saw it coming, the news this morning about SCOTUS overturning Roe v. Wade is painful and shocking. Please give space to those feelings if they come, but at the same time we can’t stay there forever.
We can’t succumb to the feelings of doom and helplessness because there is still always another path forward and a bolder vision to fight for. We must use this moment to catalyze change on a community level. Support and fund those on the frontlines of this reproductive fight. Link in my bio for @abortionfunds accepting donations.
And remember: safe abortion is still possible and there are providers/advocates doing the work to ensure that stays that way. We can help people travel to states where abortion will remain a protected right or engage in civil disobedience to continue providing care until we can codify abortion as a human right.
If you live in a state that will not be affected by the end of Roe, they will surely be inundated with folks traveling for an abortion. If you live in a state soon to be affected, there will be a huge vacuum and we want to ensure folks are accessing safe abortions such as pills as opposed to resorting to more dangerous measures solely based on fear and not knowing their options
Sending you all love and holding space for a vision of a country that works for all.
