A Notebooks Reading for Abortion Access
June 24 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm EDT
In Honor & Memory of Jennifer Martelli
On June 24, on the 4-year anniversary of the Supreme Court Dobbs v Jackson decision, we will gather to honor late poet Jennifer Martelli in a reading to support abortion access. Jennifer was a fierce advocate for women’s rights and in particular, the right to have an abortion. It feels like it’s even more important today, on this anniversary, when the State decided that women no longer had bodily autonomy, to come together to stand in our anger, our determination, and our will to keep fighting for rights for everyone.
The Supreme Court’s decision to all but remove access to abortions and other medical care puts people in preventable life-or-death situations. The Eastern Mass Abortion Fund, operating in the state that Jennifer called home, makes abortion accessible to anyone who needs one. And since the Dobbs decision, the need for the Fund’s services have quadrupled.
The reading is free to attend. All are invited to celebrate Jenn and her life. We only ask that if you are able, you make a contribution to the Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund.
