More than 400 people gathered in Caen to defend the right to abortion
“Abortion is a right“, “keep your laws out of our bodies“, could we read this Tuesday evening on the signs of the demonstrators of the place Bouchard in Caen, in Calvados. More than 400 people gathered to defend the right to abortion, after the decision of the US Supreme Court to revoke the right to abortion in the United States. Clearly, American states can now ban abortion or not on their soil.
A historic change in the United States, which calls into question a 1973 judgment authorizing abortion. In France the emotion remains very strong, “on regress 50 years back” Lou laments during the Caen demonstration, “we feel bad for all the women who won’t have enough money to have an abortion in states where it’s legal“ argues the young woman.
Moved, Isabelle shares misunderstanding son“in every crisis it is women’s rights that win“, laments this woman to whom this decision”makes you want to cry“.
On Place Bouchard in Caen, several demonstrators wonder and fear that the right to abortion is threatened in France. “It will affect all other countries.laments a manifesto, especially in countries where women’s rights are not respected“.
Collective Dare feminism du Calvados also fears repercussions elsewhere in the world and in France. “This signal sent by “this great democracy” will allow all reactionary forces to seize this example” Explain Dare feminism 14 in a press release. The feminist collective, which moreover supports the bill brought forward by the presidential majority to include the right to abortion in the French Constitution, “we can avoid the worst for our daughters” to end Dare feminism.
