As the Call for Revolution Summer 2024 says:

Be part of making history. Be a part of fighting for a whole new way humanity could be living.

Some of the important things your donations will make possible:

** allow organizers to travel to key areas of the country, and to bring people to Chicago in August to protest at the Democratic Convention, declaring: No Fascist Trump, No Genocide Joe, The Whole Damn System’s Got to Go. We Need Revolution for a Whole New Way to Live.

“[W]e need thousands of donations small and big. I am not able to be in the streets anymore, but I can help by being part of making a whole new, emancipating way to live by donating. Join me. Get your friends to join." — From someone who has already donated to help meet the goal

Join us tomorrow at 2 at Columbus Circle! Check out our press release here to learn more: https://madmimi.com/s/a970a61 #

20/06/2023

IMPORTANT UPDATE: We will now be rallying at Columbus Circle at 2 pm this Saturday (instead of Washington Square Park). Hope to see you there to mark the one-year anniversary of Roe V Wade's (illegitimate) overturning and make it known that we do not accept this "new normal"!

17/06/2023

Since Roe was overturned one year ago, the fascist movement to strip women and LGBTQ people of their bodily autonomy has continued to grow. We cannot sit complacent and hope that someone else fixes this, we need to stand up and fight back! Please share widely and invite your friends to join us this Saturday 6/24 at 2 in WSP (exact location tbd, just look for the folks wearing green!)

Abortion after Dobbs: Defendants, denials, and delays 26/05/2023

Late-term abortions are rare (less than 1% of all abortions) but will only get more common as Republicans continue to pass unjust abortion bans and restrictions. Some 'pro-choice' folks take issue with these procedures, but we must fight for bodily autonomy and abortion access for everyone, on demand, without apology, and without exceptions!

Abortion after Dobbs: Defendants, denials, and delays The U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision will lead to more criminalization of activities during pregnancy, more abortion denials, and more abortions after the first trimester.

Marea Verde Rising | The Nib 04/05/2023

Check out this comic talking about the origin and power of the green wave! This is why we raise the green bandana when we demand legal abortion nationwide now! 💚

Marea Verde Rising | The Nib Unstoppable Latin American activists made green the color of abortion rights – now, the U.S. needs the “green wave” more than ever.

13/04/2023

Please join us this Saturday, April 15 at 2 pm in Washington Square Park to protest Judge Kascmaryk's ruling to ban mifepristone (abortion pill). While it is possible that this decision will be stayed or delayed, we cannot sit back and wait to see how the powers-that-be will respond.

Biden promises to fight this ruling in the courts – but the highest court, the Supreme Court, is packed with fascists who ripped away the constitutional right to abortion last year. We must rely on ourselves! Raise your voice in opposition and take to the streets with us on Saturday!

07/04/2023

When future generations ask what you did when the abortion pill was banned, will you tell them you stayed home and hoped for the best? Or will you say that you fought back? If you've been waiting on the sidelines, now is the time to rise up with us! Come to the arch at Washington Square Park tomorrow night (4/8) at 6 pm and make your outrage known!

21/03/2023

The recent onslaught of abortion bans and legislation against trans and gender non-conforming people should be seen as part of the same violent, reactionary, fascist movement. Bodily autonomy is our most basic right, and we cannot accept any attempt to limit it!

Quote from this powerful article by Dayna Tortorici https://www.nplusonemag.com/issue-43/the-intellectual-situation/your-body-my-choice/

18/03/2023

We need to organize now to be ready for when the mifepristone decision drops. This ruling has the potential to be even more catastrophic than the overturning of Roe v Wade by ending ALL medication abortions. The plan is for everyone to rally in Washington Square Park at 6 pm either the day the decision is made (if it's announced before noon) or the day after. Help us spread the word now, tell your friends about this decision and what's at stake, and get ready to make your outrage known!

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Sunday! Be ready to rally again soon when the mifepristone decision drops. Abortion is a human right and we won't back down until everyone can access it on demand and without apology!

21 South Carolina GOP Lawmakers Propose Death Penalty for Women Who Have Abortions 14/03/2023

There’s a reason we chant “pro life is a lie, they don’t care if women die”. Not only are Republicans lawmakers content to see women die from unwanted pregnancies (whether by su***de, homicide by an abusive partner, or medical complications), some of them are actively advocating for women who get an abortion to murdered by the state.

21 South Carolina GOP Lawmakers Propose Death Penalty for Women Who Have Abortions It’s not just a lone extremist: The bill has 21 co-sponsors in the state’s House of Representatives

12/03/2023

Thanks to everyone who joined us at the Women Life Freedom NYC event! Don’t forget to come out tomorrow at 1 in Union Square (17th St side) for our International Women’s Day rally and march. We must rise up and denounce any and all attacks on women’s lives and freedom!

Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday. We will be having a rally and march this Sunday, March 12 to demand legal abortion nationwide now (including access to abortion medications) and liberation for women everywhere! Join us and make your voice heard!

Gracias a todos los que se unieron a nosotros ayer.

Today is International Women’s Day, join us for our emergency mobilization today at 5 pm in Union Square!

08/03/2023

Emergency mobilization! Join us tomorrow (3/8) at 5pm to march and protest Walgreens capitulating to the demands of fascists by suspending the sale of abortion pills in 21 states, including ones where abortion is legal! We must make our outrage known and demand the Walgreens provide this essential medication.

The upcoming abortion pill decision will affect people in every state, including New York. This threat to our most basic rights is not limited to “red states”, we cannot be complacent!

Join us next Sunday and tell your friends! 💚
¡Únete a nosotros el próximo domingo y cuéntaselo a tus amigos! 💚

Nuestros derechos están bajo ataque en todo el mundo, las mujeres de todos paises deben unir fuerzas y levantarse contra la opresión. No podemos permitir que los republicanos prohíban los medicamentos abortivos cruciales aquí y no podemos aceptar que las mujeres de otros países se vean obligadas a usar hijabs y no puedan participar en la vida pública. ¡Reúnase en el lado norte (calle 17) de Union Square el domingo 12 de marzo a la 1 p. m. para hacer oír su voz!

01/03/2023

Our rights are under attack across the globe, women everywhere must join forces and rise up against oppression. We cannot let the Republicans ban crucial abortion medications here and we cannot accept women in other countries being forced to wear hijabs and not being able to participate in public life. Meet on the north side (17th street) of Union Square on Sunday, March 12 at 1 pm to make your voice heard!

Photos from Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights's post 24/02/2023

Please note that the three states who introduced bills to charge women who have abortions with homicides are all states with the death penalty! These lawmakers truly don’t care about our lives, and are happy to see women die in service of their fascist ideology

23/02/2023

Join us tomorrow for an emergency action to demand that the abortion medication mifepristone be kept legal! A federal judge could revoke the FDA's approval of the medication as early as tomorrow, Feb 24, so we are rallying nationwide against this potential devastating blow to abortion access for the whole country. Meet at 3 pm in Washington Square Park, near the arch

08/02/2023

Biden spoke for over an hour last night, so why was the fact that 13 states have outlawed a necessary medical procedure barely mentioned? He clearly doesn't consider us being stripped of our bodily autonomy an emergency. We cannot count on him or the other democrats, we can only count on ourselves. The responsibility falls on each of us to fight like hell to restore legal abortion nationwide now!

Abortion rights advocates march in Manhattan to mark 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade 23/01/2023

21/01/2023
