With the Supreme Court overturning Roe vs. Wade Americans once again find themselves fighting for bodily autonomy and basic human rights. This fight is not new and the long history of activism in support of abortion rights can inform what we do going forward both in terms of making sure people get the healthcare they need now and changing the system so these rights are never threatened again.
Activist and writer Robin Marty guides readers through various worst-case scenarios of a post-Roe America, and offers ways to fight back, including: how to acquire financial support, how to use existing networks and create new ones, and how to, when required, work outside existing legal systems. She details how to plan for your own emergencies, how to start organizing now, what to know about self-managed abortion care with pills and/or herbs, and how to avoid surveillance.
