Kentucky Goddamn! All Abortion Banned in Kentucky

by Sunsara Taylor

Kentucky goddam! Kentucky today became the first state to ban all abortions. The only two abortion clinics in that state stopped doing them today (April 14). Right now, women who need abortions in that state are having their appointments cancelled. Right now, they are being told that their lives, their dreams, their hopes for the future, their plans, their physical safety doesn’t count for shit, because a bunch of women-haters, a bunch of theocratic Christian fascists have taken the reins of state and told them that they are going to be forced to have a child, whether they want one or not. They’re going to have their lives and their futures foreclosed.

And if we don’t act, if we don’t stand up across this country and raise hell, this could be the fate of women across the country. The U.S. Supreme Court is getting ready—they are on track to overturn Roe v. Wade, to gut women’s right to abortion nationwide, in just a few weeks. People are sleeping through this. They’re sitting back. Most don’t even know it’s happening.

If you don’t go out and raise hell and raise the green bandana, and get in the streets and let them know, then you are allowing this atrocity, the enslavement of half of humanity, to go down.

This is not a drill. Abortion is already effectively banned across Texas… a law is on the books to criminalize it in Oklahoma, scheduled to go into effect in August… today, Ron DeSantis, that Trump-wannabe, fascist, disgusting specimen of our species signed a 15-week ban on abortion in Florida. This is going to be the future, unless we stand up and stop it. And only the people can stop this. Only the masses of people rising up, raising hell, waving the green bandana—the symbol of abortion rights and struggle for abortion rights that came out of Latin America and that Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights has taken up here—you need to be a part of this.

Which side are you on? Which side are you on?

I want to call on you to get out into the streets and raise hell. Go to the website RiseUp4AbortionRights.org. Sign up, get involved, be a part of the national organizing summit this week, and be part of emergency actions coming in the days and weeks ahead. Everything is on the line right now for the future of women and girls.

From the genocide in Gaza, to the growing threat of world war between nuclear powers, to escalating environmental devastation… the capitalist-imperialist system ruling over us is a horror for billions around the world and is tearing up the fabric of life on earth. Now the all-out battle within the U.S. ruling class, between fascist Republicans and war criminal Democrats, is coming to a head—likely during, or before, the coming elections—ripping society apart unlike anything since the Civil War.

Bob Avakian (BA), revolutionary leader and author of the new communism, has developed a strategy to prepare for and make revolution. He’s scientifically analyzed that this is a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible, and has laid out the sweeping vision, solid foundation and concrete blueprint for “what comes next,” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.

The website revcom.us follows and applies that leadership and is essential to all this. We post new materials from BA and curate his whole body of work. We apply the science he’s developed to analyze and expose every key event in society, every week. Revcom.us posts BA’s timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists), including his social media posts which break this down for people every week and sometimes more. We act as a guiding and connecting hub for the growing revcom movement nationwide: not just showing what’s being done, but going into what’s right and what’s wrong and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force.

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but goes up to a whole different level!

So what should you give to make 2024 our year—a year of revolution?
Everything you possibly can!
