In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Good Day! 

I wrote the essay below as I was listening to the Senate debate this "Unborn Victims" bill which is purported to protect women and unborn children from crime. If it passes, it will further erode Roe v. Wade, I believe—as does Diane Feinstein. One Senator stood up and showed blown-up photographs of his dead baby. Bleck!

This essay was also inspired by an online conversation I was having with members of our local peace group about who we were going to vote for in November.

Hope you're all having a great day! 0 comments
