In the wake of the leaked Supreme Court decision that signals the likely overturning of Federal Protections from Roe v. Wade, there has been a lot of - understandable- reactions.
But being reactionary and quick to act without the necessary preparations leads to a lot of trouble - and fast.
This episode is going to take on the responses I've witnessed over the last week to the leaked draft opinion and use the White Supremacy Culture document by Tema Okun and the late Kenneth Jones to help me break down how these responses by particularly cis- white- women are still rooted in WSC.
Then I'll use the solutions provided to help us then begin to imagine new ways to respond and fix the mistakes we have collectively made through our community organizing efforts in the past.
