Thrilled to hear Loretta Ross today! 2 gems so far:
“We can’t turn on our allies. We’re facing fascism, people. We’re having debates while they’re having conversations about how to eliminate all of us.”
“Those who oppose reproductive justice only have 2 things on their side: lies and violence.”

So proud of Ron and all of our EJP students!
