Ep.5/ bodily autonomy
We are in freeze. But We’re also planning. We are in despair, but our rage shakes mountains. Point us where We need to go, my sisters and I shall synch up like magnets.
LISTEN NOW
This period we are in is a tough one, because it is essentially about managing the situation, staying connected and being able to act quickly when opportunities rise to remedy this terrible injustice.
We are still reeling after the government has declared that states can make their own rulings, and those rulings said women in 26 states,are not bodily autonomous. Women and girls and folks who can become pregnant. This a trigger Warning for sexual predation, and rape. I didn’t put it at the top of the show because all the talk of this topic includes this alarming fact:
There are states that have no exceptions for incest, meaning if a chid is raped by their father, that child would be FORCED TO ENDURE the pain and anguish of birthing their sibling.
Ectopic pregnancy that can NOT result in the birth of a baby, but CAN result in the death of the mother, there are states where there is NO EXCEPTION. Meaning 100% of the time there will be no baby born.
Quick treatment for an ectopic pregnancy is important to protect the mother's life.
