DESCRIPTION:Reproductive Justice Now! \nEnd the War on Women!\n\nAugust 26, Women's 
 Equality Day, commemorates the day women won the right to vote with the 
 passage of the 19th Amendment 99 years ago. Almost a 100 years later, there 
 is still so much we are fighting to defend and to win. As part of national 
 days of action, the Party for Socialism and Liberation in the Bay Area will 
 be holding a speak out demanding reproductive justice and an end to the war 
 on women. Celebrate Women’s Equality Day in struggle!\n\nIn the first 
 half of 2019, abortion bans have passed in 6 states. Thirty-eight states 
 have granted some sort of personhood to a fetus and the criminalization of 
 miscarriage is growing. The charges brought (and then dropped after much 
 outcry) against Marshae Jones for a miscarriage that resulted from being 
 shot is only the latest evidence of this. The campaign against access to 
 abortion over the last two decades has shifted to an outright campaign to 
 overturn Roe v Wade.The struggle to defend Roe v Wade and to win full 
 reproductive rights is more pressing now than ever.\n\nWe know that an 
 organized women’s movement is the only way we can win back our rights, 
 and fight back against the brutal nature of patriarchy and capitalism. It 
 was an organized movement that won women's right to vote, just as it was a 
 militant, organized women’s movement that won the Roe v. Wade decision 
 some 50 years later.\n\nThe stakes are high! We must keep the history of 
 the militant legacy of the women's movement at the core of our struggle 
 today. Join us in the streets for our Women's Equality Day speak out at 6pm 
 at 24th & Mission Streets. Share the Facebook event with your community or 
 stop by the PSL office at 2969 Mission Street to get flyers and get 
 involved!\n\nFacebook event:
