Ventura County Reproductive Rights Network

A primarily white domestic violence shelter tried to show that it welcomed black survivors of violence, by displaying a "Black Lives Matter" sign. In response, not only did the county STRIP its $25,000 in funding, but its police force now REFUSES to work with the shelter. "Pro-lifers" have openly supported Kyle Rittenhouse for killing two black protest marchers, but say nothing about threats to women's lives. Weird...

The fight for reproductive justice isn't just raging in D.C. and Sacramento. Here in Ventura, local organizations across the county are fighting for the future of your rights. Seven local orgs have come together to make the case for why on November 3, you should vote like your (reproductive) rights depend on it. These include... Chalice Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of the Conejo Valley... Indivisible Ventura Planned Parenthood Central Coast Action Fund Ventura County Women's Political Council Ventura County Women's Forum Collaborative Ventura Chapter (ACLU SoCal) Ojai NOW: National Organization for Women - Ojai Valley Chapter Ventura County is counting on you.

*LOUD FACEPALM* First, Senator Pro-Life claimed this week that South Carolina is a perfectly safe place for black people, as long as they're "conservative". Now he's not even acting like he wants Black people to vote for him. (Bro, you're supposed to use dog whistles, not primal screams.)

#MoscowMitch literally LAUGHED when asked why he's REFUSED to pass coronavirus relief for a pandemic that's killed over 200,000 Americans and cost over 20 million jobs. Also, the headline is misleading. Mitch actually laughed FIVE TIMES in response to attempts to make him respond to the question. (Is anyone surprised this is the same "pro-life" psychopath who's proud of blocking the Violence Against Women Act? Gotta protect rapists from their victims!)

A heroic Black American athlete tried to stop a domestic abuser from assaulting his partner in broad daylight. In response, Texas police shot him to death... the Black American hero, not the abuser he stopped. His name was Jonathan Price.

Remember in August we posted how a "pro-life" site had raised 250,000 USD for a white criminal who murdered two people at a black protest? This "pro-life" site has now raised OVER HALF A MILLION for this killer. Per the site, "Let's give back to someone who bravely tried to defend his community." When will pro-lifers will start fundraising for black people shot 7 times in the back?

Due to the fallout over last night's debate and Donald giving a shout-out to America's most notorious white militia, you might have missed this bit of misogynist news: #MoscowMitch has REPEATEDLY refused to participate in debates that include female moderators. In fact, Mitch has... Refused a KET (Kentucky’s NPR) debate moderated by a Black woman Refused a TV station debate that was to be moderated by a male and female moderator, until the station agreed to remove the fem...ale Refused, in fact, to participate in debates featuring female moderators for 25 YEARS, and is just now being questioned on that Is anyone shocked that this is the same genius who's still blocking the Violence Against Women Act and equal pay for women?

Andrew Napolitanothe "pro-life" Fox News analyst who calls himself Judge Napolitano because he was a judge 20 years agohas been accused of (SHOCKER) sexual assault and attempted rape in TWO separate lawsuits. Why do pro-life men feel entitled to subjugate women's bodies? We wonder, we wonder...

Donald has campaigned on being the most "PRO-GAY!" president in American history (with the possible exception of Lincoln, maybe.) His supporters literally tell a different story.

White evangelical leaders claim that the movement to save Black lives is actually "lesbian-led, un-American" and bent on "trying to destroy Christianity". White evangelicals have made the same claims about EVERY civil rights movement. MLK was allegedly a Soviet agent because Blacks were clearly too stupid to organise on their own. The Occupy movement was allegedly led by "masturbators", and "predators". And don't forget the Christian Right wasn't initially inspired by abortion rights. It was first founded to support school segregation and apartheid. No wonder evangelical leaders claim President White Supremacist is God’s chosen one and the second coming of God. \_()_/
