V (formerly Eve Ensler) joined fellow featured speakers today at the International Women’s Day – Abortion On Demand & Without Apology” protest in NYC’s Union Square.

“The Supreme Court is on track to gut or overturn women’s fundamental right to abortion by late spring. Already Texas is under a near total abortion ban. The violent subjugation of half of society must not be accommodated, excused, downplayed, or surrendered to. Our only way forward is to resist! Let us Rise together this #InternationalWomensDay. NOW is the time to stand up, together, as if our lives depend upon it – for, in fact, they do.” – Sunsara Taylor/Rise4AbortionRights.org
