Decision Day Action in Portland: We Won’t Go Back

Colonel Summers Park SE 17th Avenue and Taylor Street, Portland, OR, United States

The Supreme Court has overturned Roe v Wade thus putting a final nail in the coffin of legal abortion rights on the national level. The only reason abortion rights were achieved was because of the struggle of tens of millions of women demanding justice in the 1960’s and early 1970’s. The people’s struggle will be the path to win and secure abortion rights and all other rights once again. Now more than ever we cannot sit back and despair. We must take to the streets across the country and make it clear that we will not accept this. We won’t go back. We WILL fight back!
