6/8/09: Wear Yellow to Honor Dr. Tiller and Reproductive Freedom

In light of the assassination of Dr. George Tiller, a reproductive
health doctor and abortion provider in Wichita, Kansas, who was
assassinated on Sunday May 31st in his church, we are asking that
everyone who stands in solidarity with womens' choice everywhere wear
yellow this Monday June 8th.

In her book "Selling Suffrage: Consumer Culture and Votes for Women,"
Margaret Finnegan traces the use of yellow back to 1887, when Kansas
suffragists, campaigning for a suffrage amendment in their state,
adopted the yellow ribbon as their "distinctive sign," borrowing the
color from the state flower, the sunflower. She notes that the color
caught the attention of other workers throughout the country such as
Mary Livermore, and that Massachusetts and Pennsylvania suffragists
quickly created their own version of the sunflower badge. By 1896, the
National American Woman's Suffrage Association (NAWSA), the main
suffrage organization in America, was selling sunflower stationery and
pins. Yellow, notes Finnegan, quickly became an official color.

The color gold, or yellow, has a long history of being important in
the women’s rights movement. The sunflower is the state flower of
Kansas, where Dr. Tiller practiced. We implore you all to stand with
us on Monday June 8th to mourn the loss of Dr. Tiller, as well as to
mark this day as one where we once again refuse to be intimidated and
afraid.

Please remember to wear yellow this coming Monday June 8th in
commemoration of those lost in the fight for reproductive freedom. We
also ask reproductive health facilities all across the country to
spread the message of solidarity by displaying sunflowers on Monday
June 8th.

-------------------------------------------
Please also consider making a donation to the memorial fund
established in Dr Tiller's honor. The fund will assist women in the
second trimester

Due to having to go a different route into town because I had to see the doc about a sprained foot, I was "treated" to this billboard on the side of this main drag that stated: "2,000,000 Couples Are Waiting. Do Not Abort. Choose Life." I was offended because it basically states how a woman should feel required to go ahead and birth her baby just so she can give it to a twitching infertile couple. Of course, the billboard shows this lily-white baby. Please, it is my body and my life. There is no way in h-ll that I would continue a pregnancy just to give the kid to some whiny idiots who think they cannot be complete without a newly-birthed white infant. There are more than enough kids in this country who need shelter without encouraging women to birth more just to make someone else feel self-actualized. That is the epitome of selfishness.

THANK-YOU, NAF, for adding me! I am so pro-choice it ain't funny to many people. I am a religious Hindu but believe in abortion on demand. I can go on 'n on about this issue and probably use more space than the comments sections allows. From 1998-2000, I was involved with the Orlando NOW until it sort of went defunct. I did clinic security work and was glad to be of service to the patients as well as the employees. I got a scary letter sent to my apartment as the pro-lifers take down license plate #'s and have friends at the tag office to get addresses. I am thankful every single day that I was able to get an abortion in 1994 when the first tubal ligation failed. I have no troube posting this in public. I wish more women would admit their abortions rather than allow society to make them feel ashamed and guilt. I never wanted to be a mother and am darn grateful that I was not forced into having a baby.

Namaste...

I am a young mother of two little boys and they have a great sister who we have custody of. I agree life is presious...my childrens life is presious because I choose to sacrifice everything to have them. If it was forced then it would mean nothing. I could never have an abortion, I know what amazingly cute people my fetus' turn into. But thats not the point, I know that you can not legislate morality and I have no right to force people in a free country to not be able to legally practice whatever they believe. There were prolife booths at our county fair this year (as always in SD) and they passed out these little dolls that were "what your 12 week child looked like" and I couldn't help but laugh in there face and take out the 13 week ultrasound of my son and point out his lack of feet, legs, hands, facial fetures, and the hump on his back. They play this "babys are cute" card way to much. Also there is now legislation in SD that they have to give you an ultra sound and basically call you a baby killer before they can give you an abortion. These manipultive "christians" are trying to make it so that it is emotionally scaring to have an abortion. I wish people could look out of the a$$ there heads are shoved in and see what country they live in and what there are doing to it. I'm done ranting now sorry.

Hello.

First we want to say thank you for your support and awareness on this very important issue for it is an issue that touches and affects each one of us.

You will be hearing much more from us as we move forward with this campaign. We are currently prioritizing the need for healthcare insurance for the women and children of America. We are reaching out to the community, asking that the community as well, communicate this issue of healthcare for women and children to everyone that they feel understands the issue and priority of healthcare for women and children.
We ask that individuals and communities get involved to support comprehensive healthcare for women and children.
We encourage everyone to communicate to the candidates running for national office (Congress and the White House) that we will support and vote for a common sense plan for national healthcare insurance for the women and children of America.
In support of a coherent plan.
It is time think clearly!

Planned Parenthood wants to help you Back up your Birth Control!

Emergency Contraception, "the Morning-After Pill," or Plan B, can be taken up to 120 hours after intercourse, but it is most effective if taken within 24 hours. So why not always keep Emergency Contraception on hand and help prevent an unplanned pregnancy?

Emergency Contraception can be purchased at Planned Parenthood at affordable prices and without appointment or prescription for clients 18 and older. EC is available at all three of Planned Parenthood of NYC's health centers.

National Day of Support of Abortion Providers
http://www.refuseandresist.org/ab/index.html

On this day -
Stand up with your abortion services providers and say:
Thank you for your heroism, perserverance, courage, and commitment to women.

* Praise clinic staff and doctors with cards and letters of appreciation. Let them know they have your support and thanks.
* Bring your local clinic staff flowers or a breakfast basket of fruit or muffins.
* Organize local appreciation day events.
* Organize with others to hold a March 10th dinner with area providers.
* Step up to the front lines and be a volunteer clinic escort.
* Ask your local provider how you can help.
* Write your local newspaper, call talk shows to express support.
* Take out ads in your newsletters and local newspapers.
* Use your imagination, creativity and dedication to help create a climate at clinics where women, doctors and staff can hold their heads high without feeling shamed or fearing assault.

The National Day of Appreciation for Abortion Providers was initiated in 1996 and co-sponsored by many national organizations and individuals, as a way to help stop the isolation and create a positive climate for abortion providers across the country. March 10th is the anniversary of the assassination of Dr. David Gunn, the first provider murdered by an anti-abortion extremist. It is a day to remember and honor Dr. Gunn and others who have and continue to put their lives on the line daily to make choice possible. Without abortion providers, there can be no "choice." And without choice women cannot be free to live and plan their lives!

In the shadow of the first federal ban on an abortion procedure and the criminalization of doctors who perform this service for women in need, and with the subsequent federal subpoenas of patient records, it is especially important right now to let providers know we stand with them.

South Dakota needs your help. There is no way for you to get an abortion if you live in the northern part of the state unless you can travel across state. Docs don't ofere any help or other options either. I wish this closed minded place would realize that they can practice what they believe and let others preactice there beliefs the way this country was ment to be and was founded for.
