Yay, nominated for the 2025 Eisner for One Shot:
I just read this Abortion Pill Zine: A Community Guide to Misoprostol and Mifepristone after buying it from Marnie Galloway at CAKE here in Chicago. I am a fan of Galloway's work, and also just read a short collection of diary comics she produced from 2023-2024 that is as of today not yet listed here. That diary comics work focuses on her life as co-parent of several children.
I had asked her how she was doing in "these times" and she pointed me to both the diary and this zine. She said it emerged out of conversations around the imprisoning of people for selling, using, anything with respect to abortion pills. "We had to do something," she said.
Maybe the talk about abortion pills makes you uncomfortable? Maybe you think the topic is "too political" for you? Maybe you don't really get how it all works? I suggest you read this short zine you can buy from Silver Sprocket Press or at some comic books stores. Educate yourself about why it is people might want an abortion, why they think they should have the right to do so, and how it all works at the moment (they admit that by the time you read this things will probably have changed in some small or large ways).
"Safe abortion is a human right"--the authors
"I have always been pro-choice by pregnancy and parenting radicalized me. The physical, emotional, financial, and logistical challenges of pregnancy and parenthood are heavy to carry even when having a family is a deeply desired outcome. Forced pregnancy is a cruel, unjust violation of our human rights"--Marnie Galloway
In 2011, 45% of the 6.1 million pregnancies in the United States were unintended.
