People hear “Reproductive Rights” and think it is a “women’s issue.” As Michelle Obama so eloquently points out in this message to men, this impacts men in important ways. I have clipped this message from Michelle Obama’s longer speech (as presented by ABC) at a Harris campaign rally in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Please watch this video and share it widely – especially to men, and most especially to men who are planning to vote for Trump.
I am a sociologist, writer and activist with life long engagement in social justice, peace, environmental, and animal rights movements. My research and writing include issues of imperialism, oppression, global capitalism, peak resources, global warming, and environmental degradation. I taught sociology for twenty-two years, was a member of the City of Portland’s Peak Oil Task Force, and maintain my own site Uncommon Thought Journal. I may be reached by email at [email protected]. On a personal note, I am also a survivor of pulmonary hypertension by the gift of a donor’s lungs in 2011. I do my best to honor that gift by trying to be my best self and give to the world what small gifts I have. Among those is a deep passion for life, and the lives of all those with whom I share the planet.
