Let our voices not be silent, nor our bodies idle

Posted at Molly Saves the Day:
For the women of South Dakota: an abortion manual

Why is she posting this information? As she says in another post:

When my friends and I began to discuss the way the wind was blowing regarding Roe — and the fact that there might not be abortion-friendly laws in the United States, especially in red states, soon, several commented that within a few years, there would of course be setups built to handle it — safe illegal clinics, another Jane network, newsgroups developed for the sole purpose of transporting women, et cetera. But even as this idea soothed us a little, it also suggested something horrible: that for a few years, there would be a service gap that would kill many women unlucky enough to get pregnant during those lean years.

I am posting this now so that the information is available for anyone who believes it is needed where they are, as a hedge against these laws. No woman should be caught in a gap, forced to give birth or attempt self-abortion.

Brava, Molly.

    Those who enjoyed reading Miss Molly’s manual may also enjoy reading these fine publications; The Serial Killer Files: The Who, What, HOW, and Why… by Harold Schechter or How To Get Away With Murder In The United States by Charlie Currie.
