Wade--</em>the court case legalizing abortion in 1973--and at the worst overturn it, making abortion illegal. We rally at a time when our state of Tennessee is considering anti-choice legislation. Today, over 200,000 women die every year and thousands more are left maimed because abortion is illegal in the countries in which they live. Nevertheless, they risk their lives in an effort to control their own bodies.<br /><br /><em>Come rally with us! Help spread the word! Stand up for your human rights!</em><br /><br />For more information about the Rally, or to volunteer, please email <a href="mailto:WACMemphis@gmail.com">WACMemphis [at] gmail.com</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9243986-114368443363306566?l=wacmemphis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>wacmemphishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13650292757341799582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9243986.post-1107490743927049872005-02-03T22:16:00.000-08:002005-02-03T20:19:03.926-08:00<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2005/02/02/national/02pregnant.html?oref=login">Phony clinic article in the New York Times</a>, courtesy Terry. <br /> <br />If you aren't registered with the New York Times, check <a href="http://www.bugmenot.com">BugMeNot</a> for a universal login and password. <br /> <br />--amy <br /> <br /> <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9243986-110749074392704987?l=wacmemphis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>wacmemphishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13650292757341799582noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9243986.post-1106451802375250482005-01-22T21:41:00.000-08:002005-01-22T19:44:48.056-08:00WAC's demonstration outside of the Life Choices "clinic" should make the 10 o'clock news! <a href="http://www.wmcstations.com/Global/story.asp?S=2844203">Here's the story on WMC-TV 5's website</a>. <br /> <br />Way to go, Maya! <br /> <br />--amy <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9243986-110645180237525048?l=wacmemphis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>wacmemphishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13650292757341799582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9243986.post-1105740456451323852005-01-14T15:59:00.000-08:002005-01-14T14:07:36.450-08:00We are hosting a weekend of pro-choice events to commemorate the anniversary of Roe v.
