Yes, Arkansas women will be marching with others across the country in support of reproductive freedom. The response is to the rise in restrictive laws against women’s medical autonomy, particularly a new Texas law that allows vigilantes to chill abortion rights, with no roadblock from the U.S. Supreme Court.
Marches in several Arkansas cities are planned. But the Little Rock event is noted on this Facebook group.
UPDATE: of course I should have said the March isn’t limited to women.
I’m Katie Rhodes, the social media coordinator for Arkansas for Reproductive Freedom. We really appreciate you posting the article about our event on your site today. We would like to mention that our group is not comprised of only women. Many people that do not identify as women have a uterus and other reproductive organs. We aim to make our group and event inclusive to all whose reproductive rights are under attack. Our group is also welcoming to men and anyone else that wants to march in solidarity. If there is any way your article could be updated to reflect this, we would greatly appreciate it., the social media coordinator for Arkansas for Reproductive Freedom.
