We had a time at Treme Fest! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate our city, our culture, and our power. And remember, the last day to early vote is Tuesday, October 29.

Voting won’t save us! But it can reduce harm in our communities so that we can continue in the struggle for our ultimate liberation.

There’s no way to capture the amount of heartbreak abortion bans across the country have caused, but this is a good start. Take action by VOTING & supporting folks like our friends at @LAAbortionFund . nytimes.com/interactive/20…
