Here in the United States, judges temporarily blocked abortion bans in Ohio and Arizona Friday, while challenges to the bans proceed. Following the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v Wade in June, at least 13 states have enacted a near-total ban on abortions. Meanwhile, people took to the streets Saturday in nationwide rallies organized by the Women’s March, ahead of next month’s midterms. In Washington, D.C., protesters marched to the U.S. Capitol.

Jackie Foster-Walker: “We’re here today because my blood and my tears had to fight to vote, had to fight to get Roe in the first place.”

Emelie Tdsalvo: “My personal attitude is that I don’t believe that anybody should be made to become a mom if it’s not in the cards for them. And I don’t think that politics should determine that. It’s my body, my choice, for every woman in the world, not even just our country.”
