Don’t spend money on merch or pussy hats or a performative woman’s march. Donate to abortion funds, bail funds, mutual aid orgs

On Oct. 15, @ProfGraceHoward discussed her new book The Pregnancy Police at a Vital Signs event. The book examines the legal frameworks behind the surveillance and prosecution of pregnant people, exposing the roles of healthcare, social work, and legal networks.

Amber Nicole Thurman died because of an abortion ban.
But her death is also a result of hospital legal teams, admin, and physicians prioritizing their careers over her life.

National orgs intentionally erase later abortion patients to hold their proximity to power.
Support abortion funds, birth justice orgs, prison abolitionists, and all who have to pick up the slack when #bigrepro and friends stigmatize and ban abortion at random points in pregnancy

New faculty guidelines from Barnard College at Columbia University. Professors are not allowed to post signs on their door "that support a geopolitical view or perspective". When talking about "geopolitical views or perspectives", faculty must talk about both sides.
ALT Some examples of activities that violate this community expectation include: Messaging from the president of Barnard College or any division or department supporting a geopolitical viewpoint or perspective while denigrating or remaining silent about an opposing geopolitical viewpoint or perspective. Employees posting signs on their office doors supporting a geopolitical viewpoint or perspective. Employees supporting a campaign for a candidate on their Barnard webpage profile.

This month was maybe the best stretch of content since we launched @boltsmag 2 years ago.
I'm really proud of all of these stories, & how they're bringing so many different facets of local politics, and their high stakes on criminal justice & voting rights, to life! ↓

We need some help getting my cousin Samah to her short term goal $9,500. We are only $500 away. She is a self-sufficient person who does not like to ask for help but she could really use the help right now. Can we get 20 people that can help with $25? It would truly mean the world to her and she rarely asks me for anything. They are using the funds to pay for their necessities. gofundme.com/f/help-samah-an…

Two young Palestinians were kidnapped by an Israeli settler in the West Bank. They managed to escape and ended up near the Ari'el settlement. The moment they encountered Israeli forces, they were shot dead with over 50 bullets. These were their final words on WhatsApp.

The national GOP's platform endorses the idea that embryos and fetuses are full legal persons under the 14th Amendment.
“I can’t overstate how impactful this would be,” says @profgracehoward, an expert on the policing of pregnancy. boltsmag.org/how-pregnancy-i…

Horrifying news out of Texas. It appears that Texas will no longer allow drivers license gender marker changes, and those who attempt to will have their information collected.
They appear to state they will even ignore court orders.
