FREE MY BODY
Life, death, women, body, freedom, choice,
rights, religion, politics.
The hope that these fragments of words will unite into a meaningful discourse continues to burn in those who long to make decisions for themselves and their own bodies.
Yet, this freedom is under threat from a segment of society that arrogates the right to decide for women, claiming to act in their best interest and posing as guardians of morality.
In some places, abortion is a sacrosanct right, in others it is a crime.
On the stage of Western society, this contradiction performs an awkward dance to the off-key tune of a chorus that stubbornly denies rights that should be inalienable.
Meanwhile, the voices of women, the unique and true protagonists,
continue to rise. And they will not stop.
