Fury at the Supreme Courts plan to gut women's rights is building. Women and supporters of women's health rights rallied on May 7 at Powell and March in San Francisco in an action called by the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

Speakers blasted the Supreme Court for its evident plan to repudiate fifty years of settled law established by Row vs Wade. With signs and slogans proclaiming their determination to resist, they marched down Market Street, last seen heading south in the mission district at Valencia and 16th.

The week of May 8 to 14 promises to be a week of contual protest as supporters of women's right to control their own bodies take to the streets.

The Supreme Court Is On Track to Take Away Women's Right to Abortion Within Weeks. Only The People Can Stop This!

Take to the Streets and Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights
In A Week of Resistance
May 8 – May 14

On campuses, in workplaces, on social media, in the arts and the sciences, out in the streets, everywhere... Raise your voice and raise hell! Show which side you are on.

Wear & spread the Green Bandana - the international symbol of abortion rights.

The week will culminate in Mass Unified Protests Nationwide, including, in the Bay Area,
Saturday May 14, 1:00 pm
24th & Mission Street, San Francisco

We Refuse To Let the Supreme Court Take Away the Right to Abortion!

Forced Motherhood = Female Enslavement

The end of Roe v. Wade would be one of the most significant reversals of a fundamental human and civil right in this country’s history.
