Saturday, January 22nd, 2011 – Celebrating 38 years since Roe v. Wade!
11am – Gather
We need people to help establish the space for the Speak-Out. We have a permit and need people to help occupy as much space as possible so that the anti-choice forces can’t.
12noon – Speak-Out
Come raise your voice for reproductive justice, to commemorate Roe v. Wade and the bravery of abortion providers in the face of increased terrorism against abortion clinics, and support a local clinic under attack. See the attached flyer for a full list of demands and more details about the Speak-Out.
