From the Newsroom

What’s up, everybody? All of us from ShoutOut wish you well during these last weeks of the spring semester!

Here’s what’s up with everything else this week:

Political Ish:

• North Carolina’s governor Pat McCrory is not making anything better after the BS bathroom policy’s passing.
• Equal Pay Day was yesterday. Yep, wage gap still exists. Yep, still sucks.
• The rate of self-induced abortions is rising in areas with restrictions like TRAP laws preventing abortion access.
• San Francisco is the first city in the U.S. to require fully-paid parental leave (yaaas!).
• #PeriodsforPence continues as people in Indiana speak out against new abortion restrictions.
• Clinton vs. Sanders TONIGHT @ 9pm!

JMU:

• April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month! Come to Step Up For Survivors to support survivors of sexual and domestic violence.

But Wait! There’s More:

• #BringBackOurGirls updates & info.
• Rachel Dolezal is writing a book about race…after she has been claiming to be Black (while actually being white) for years…awkward…

There’s some horrific things happening these days… Stay safe & keep beating down the patriarchy!
