Fighting The South Dakota Abortion Ban

I will be leaving bright and early tomorrow morning for Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Through Planned Parenthood, I received a scholarship to head out there for a Live Action Camp, where we’ll be fighting Measure 11, the ballot initiative aiming to outlaw abortion in the state.

Sadly, I do not have a laptop. And in any case, it looks like I’ll be moving around a lot so I wouldn’t have much time to live-blog, anyway. Nor would I want a laptop to deal with while canvassing door-to-door. But, I do have a cell phone. You can follow what’s going on this weekend via my Twitter page. (Sorry, Feministers, I’d send in updates through our twitter as well, if I could, but only one twitter per cell phone.) I’ll be sending in updates and hopefully even pictures the whole time. Over at the Curvature, there’s a widget in the sidebar that you can scroll through using the little arrows at the bottom, or you can just go directly to the twitter page. And then, of course, I’ll properly blog about the experience when I get back.

See you soon!

[p.s. I didn’t think there’d be enough interest to cross-post it here, but if you’re a fellow-fan of fab feminist Yoko Ono, a long-ass post about an art exhibit I visited last week, complete with many pictures, will be going up here at 9AM.]

  1. What a koinkideenk! I don’t know where you’ll be or how long, but if you are there the weekend of October 3rd-5th maybe I’ll see you. I’d love to meet you; I think you’re the blogger I star for links on my blog most often. Either way, I’m thrilled you’re doing this! I can only spare the weekend but I’m heading up with the Law Students for Reproductive Justice, funded by the Iowa ACLU. I’m very excited about it.
