Six Pact

One of the things that surprises me most about protests in America are the things young people are not protesting about at all. WaPo (Gift Article): Tears and despair at Florida abortion clinic in final hours before ban. “The 22-year-old mother of two had learned just a few hours earlier that a new six-week abortion ban would go into effect in Florida on Wednesday. So she canceled all her plans and found someone to drive her, in hopes of ending her pregnancy before the deadline. She was one day too late.”

+ Why is a 6-week abortion ban nearly a total ban? It’s about how we date a pregnancy. (In too many places, we’re dating them 1864.)
