NWL-NYC September General Meeting: People Power!

September 18, 2018 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm EDT

Members of the Mountain States Women's Abortion Coalition form a picket line in front of the State Capitol in January of 1972 (David Cupp, Post Archive/Getty Images).

Many people are moving to fight the appointment of Trump's US Supreme Court Justice nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, under the belief that nine justices gave us the Roe v. Wade (1973) decision and five justices will keep Roe from being overturned. Join us to learn how it was actually serious grassroots organizing in the Women's Liberation Movement—and not the courts—that won us access to legal abortion in 1973. We'll also discuss strategies for preserving and expanding abortion access beyond SCOTUS and Roe.
