One out of three American women has had an abortion. But that’s a statistic, not a face. I’ve never spoken about my abortion publicly. It’s terrifying. One expects death threats, to be called a baby killer. One’s societal training is to be classy, be private, pretend your activism is on the behalf of others. Never let them see you bleed.Never, ever tell your own story.
But silence, as much as anything, is why abortion’s such an easy target in America. Stories save lives.
I had an abortion. I’m not sorry. I’m not afraid.

My friend Molly Crabapple is a disturbed individual. I took this photo of her when she had converted a luxury hotel suite into her own personal insane asylum. She has a show coming up called “Shell Game.” You need to see it.
