Leslie Graves gives us a recap on the Stop the Bans Rally in Santa Rosa, which she was able to organize in just a couple days in alliance with the nationwide action #StoptheBans to protest the recent state laws banning abortion in Alabama and restricting women’s reproductive choice in 12 other states, threatening Roe v. Wade in future Supreme Court decisions. Leslie conveys the excitement and passion of the participants and lists some organizations that are allies. Leslie will be one of the float judges this year for the Sonoma County Pride Festival: Together We Rise, that is happening this Sunday June 2 in Santa Rosa in the Square.
