"Overturning Roe V Wade reduces women to little more than incubators. It sends a clear message to women everywhere; 'we're coming back to remove the rights your grandmother fought for.' "
That's the powerful statement from three North East women's rights and social justice groups as they get set to hold a huge abortion-rights demonstration in Newcastle city centre.
Women's Street Watch, Women's Banner Group and North East Against Racism are calling on members of the public to join them at Monument on Sunday, July 10, as they protest against the overturning of Roe Vs. Wade. The US Supreme Court overturned the ruling last week, ending the constitutional right for women in America to have an abortion that has been in place for nearly 50 years.
