Walk for Choice Chicago

Some of the moving and important things people have said during the past two Walks for Choice

AH.MAZING. Please re-blog!

A vote to defund reproductive healthcare is a vote to defund my life.
Cancer screenings, birth control, mammograms—yes, all of these things are important…but abortion is a normal part of the reproductive life of many Americans. Wanting the poor to have access to ALL reproductive healthcare is not extreme, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. March 26th—get out there.
Drumroll, please…Walk for Choice in SOUTH. DAKOTA.

People, this is important. This is really important. This is really, really important. Support them. Send them orange things. Tell them how awesome they are. Share their page on your wall. A pro-choice group assembling in SD is just so freaking awesome.

We’ve posted about this a few times since it debuted on Bill O’Reilly last night. This is a video from an anti-choice group taken at the Chicago Walk for Choice in February seeking to “expose” the radical agenda of our peaceful pro-choice movement. Hey—if working to ensure ALL people have access to healthcare and reproductive rights is radical, then guilty as charged.

This is getting a lot of attention and so we all have a great opportunity to get our voices heard! Fire up those webcams and post video responses telling us, Bill O’Reilly and the world why YOU are pro-choice. Talk about your own stories. Get statistics and show why pro-choice is truly pro-life!

Make sure you send us the links to your videos, whether you post them on tumblr, on youtube, vimeo or any other video sharing site. We’ll reblog and get your story heard!

Also, make sure to tag your videos with “walk for choice”!
