What can we learn from the cancellation of the prom at Constance McMillen’s Mississippi high school?
Constance rules!
This is why Congress has to pass the Student Non-Discrimination Act
Hope isn’t lost -- look how many folks stepped up to hold a non-discriminatory prom!

A salute to Planned Parenthood volunteer escorts

Every day at clinics all over the country, anti-choice activists harrass women trying to enter the building. To help these women, Planned Parenthood has countless volunteers who help escort them into the building safely. Check out this video of the great volunteer escorts working in the Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota.

Awesome! Volunteer escorts are very much a need in some planned parenthood or other reproductive health offices that provide abortions. Some anti-choice activists can be very hostile and verbally abusive some even go as far as to touch women and their families on the way to the clinic. I think its quite an important job and its great to see people making a difference.
