Acronym TV [54] - Roe at 43: Abortion Rights in the Crosshairs

Acronym TV [54] - Roe at 43: Abortion Rights in the Crosshairs
Fri, 1/22/2016 - by Dennis Trainor, Jr.
This article originally appeared on Acronym TV

As we mark 43rd anniversary of Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court is getting ready to hear a case that could radically restrict the number of women’s health care facilities in the United States and may make abortion services inaccessible in many parts of the country.

Before the Supreme Court will hear that case, radical religious extremists from all over the country will come to Washington, D.C. for the annual "March for Life."

Sunsara Taylor, the initiator of the group Stop Patriarchy, calls the action a “march for forced motherhood.” Taylor is leading the counter protests in Washington DC, and sat down with Dennis Trainor, Jr for this extended conversation just before the “March for Life.”

For more information on the counter protests being organized by Stop Patriarchy, go here

While the U.S., EU and their allies are enabling Rojava—the strongest force against Islamic State— to fall, it is vital for internationalists to continue to support this beacon of democracy and liberation.

June 23, 2026 may be remembered as the beginning of the end of the Democratic Party establishment.

The current wave of food recalls is a direct byproduct of President Donald Trump’s administration deliberately removing the safeguards put in place aimed at protecting American consumers more than a century ago.

From a pro-democratic perspective, civil society and new media organisations are surging in the aftermath of the Orban regime.
