You gotta fight for your right to blog edit...

Feminists for Choice
Kristin McRea blogged yesterday about a new Baltimore law that will stop Crisis Pregnancy Centers from misleading women about their services. The center is anti-choice and is upset about having to be open and honest with women in an unwanted pregnancy situation, calling the law "condemning".
Hugo Swytzer
Swytzer is an Episcopal youth minister who yesterday blogged about the controversial right-religious Manhattan Declaration. This declaration is aimed at fighting against abortion and gay rights while trying to bring young Christians back to the conservative veiwpoint. Swytzer calls this "cheap" and thinks more attention should be placed on sustainability and poverty.
Shakesville
Today is World AIDs Day, and Shakesville posted part of Hillary Clinton's speech regarding the matter. In Clinton's speech she announces that discrimination of populations has resulted in less treatment and Obama's plan to repeal the "HIV entry ban".
A Radical Profeminist
This post is about a missing black girl in Blatimore. The post comments on how minority women as well as working class women are less likely to get national media attention due to misogyny, racism and classism.
The F Word
This blog in the UK, with the same name as mine, wrote a post today about victim blaming in a newspapper. The Association of Cheif Police Officers have a "rape awareness" campaign. The campaign stresses that alcohol plays a factor in many rapes, but is mainly warning the women not to become victims as opposed to warning men not to become rapists.

  1. Sarah,

    Make sure you pay attention to your spelling to avoid typos and misspelled words. This post has newspaper and Chief spelled wrong.
