When I was 20 and in college, I got pregnant. My boyfriend took me to the clinic. The abortion cost $190. I still have the receipt to remind me of how crucial the right to choose is. I felt only gratitude and relief after the procedure—not guilt or shame. It was 1980. Today, my daughter, born in 1990, is 21 and in college. I am standing up for her right to control her destiny. I am the 1 in 3.

Kris’ #20: Join local pro-choice protestor.
Things I witnessed/learned today:
 About 100 people honked out of support.
A few people driving by held up crosses like they were casting away a demon.
The woman who runs the women’s clinic packs heat.  
I look forward to doing this again.

yes.
