Shout Your Abortion
Shout Your Abortion | Amelia Bonow, Emily Nokes
3 posts | 4 read | 10 to read
Following the U.S. Congress's attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, the hashtag #ShoutYourAbortion became a viral conduit for abortion storytelling, receiving extensive media coverage and positioning real human experiences at the center of America's abortion debate for the first time. This online momentum quickly launched a grassroots movement, inspiring countless individuals to share their stories in art, media, and community events. Shout Your Abortion is a collection of photos, essays, and creative work inspired by the movement of the same name, a template for building new communities of healing, and a call to action. This book sheds light on the individuals who breathed life into this movement, illustrating the profound political power of defying shame and claiming sole authorship of our experiences.

I can‘t begin to say how amazing this book is! It is so positive, so uplifting! SYA is a great org. We have to have these conversations! #abortionishealthcare #noregrets #noshame #shoutyourabortion
@Come-read-with-me you will love this book!

keithmalek I'm reading a GREAT book called The Outlaw Ocean, and I thought of you. The whole book isn't about this, but there's one chapter about how women get abortions on boats in the ocean since there are no maritime laws preventing it. 4y
JenniferEgnor @keithmalek I want to read the book. What you are referring to is Women on Waves, there is an excellent documentary about it called ‘Vessel‘—highly recommend! Watch free on Tubi. They are also Women On Web and AidAccess.org. So thankful for these womxn! TST is also making clever moves in defending these rights. 4y

All I can say is buy this book. Read this book. It is so valuable in alleviating the stigmatization of reproductive healthcare, because that‘s fundamentally what abortion is.

As a mother to daughters—daughters who I hope always have full agency over their bodies and choices—I owe it to them to have this book on our shelves.

This book popped on my radar when I saw Lindy‘s interview with Trevor Noah. I had no idea this book existed—to be honest I didn‘t even know about the #shoutyourabortion movement until reading about it in TWAC a few days ago.

It‘s a compilation of stories from people who have had abortions. The message Lindy was conveying through the movement is so powerful and I knew that, especially as a mother of daughters, I had to have this book.

Prairiegirl_reading I need this book! I didn‘t realize it was a book I thought it was just hashtag/movement. 5y
