Acronym TV [54] - Roe at 43: Abortion Rights in the Crosshairs

Acronym TV [54] - Roe at 43: Abortion Rights in the Crosshairs
Fri, 1/22/2016 - by Dennis Trainor, Jr.
This article originally appeared on Acronym TV

As we mark 43rd anniversary of Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court is getting ready to hear a case that could radically restrict the number of women’s health care facilities in the United States and may make abortion services inaccessible in many parts of the country.

Before the Supreme Court will hear that case, radical religious extremists from all over the country will come to Washington, D.C. for the annual "March for Life."

Sunsara Taylor, the initiator of the group Stop Patriarchy, calls the action a “march for forced motherhood.” Taylor is leading the counter protests in Washington DC, and sat down with Dennis Trainor, Jr for this extended conversation just before the “March for Life.”

For more information on the counter protests being organized by Stop Patriarchy, go here

Based on details that have emerged about Trump’s presidential agenda, the far-right Heritage Foundation plans for the next GOP president to have all the tools necessary to demolish multicultural democracy and establish a white, Christian ethnostate that imposes a gender apartheid not unlike the Taliban’s Afghanistan.

Donald Trump, Hitler

Like Hitler, Trump has a unique command of propaganda, a captivating public presence, and he knows how to drive home narratives beneficial to him and harmful to his enemies.

Trump’s brand of hyper-nationalism combined with the intense consolidation of executive power follows the same playbook as fascistic leaders in other countries like India,Russia, Hungary, Turkey, Egypt, Italy and Argentina, among others.
