This December, the Supreme Court will hear arguments for Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. This landmark case will have a prolific effect on abortion rights throughout the United States and has the potential to change the precedent of Roe v. Wade. It is imperative that we inform ourselves about the state of reproductive justice in the US. Many people will be impacted by the ruling in this case, whichever way the court decides. Please see the last slide for references and further reading.

Today is the 20th anniversary of the FDA approving medication abortion, changing the reproductive health care scene for the better.

Mark your calendars this Tuesday and Wednesday for our MOTHER Lab Open House and our Conversation/ResearchPresentation on Black Doula Work in Western Massachusetts. RSVP with the links on both fliers for these amazing events! Hope to see you there 💜💛

Here is a summary of what is happening with Dr. Alan Braid in Texas. A practicing OB/GYN, Dr. Braid was presented with lawsuits from former lawyers in Arkansas and Illinois yesterday.

For as long as people have been giving birth, they've also sought out abortions.

Through harmful US legislation, gov. officials have created/enacted policies that have & will continue to undermine BLACK & BROWN womens' health+safety. Learn more in MOTHER Lab's latest newsletter about the newest attack on reproductive rights on our website. Link in the bio.
