    Illustrated portrait of Jordyn Close, a We Testify abortion advocate with a quote that reads "In many ways, to have your abortion story heard and received well it has to be sad, but that was not my experience and that isn't the case for a lot of people.
    Quote graphic that reads "As I've continued to share my story, I've learned that the negative feelings people have when getting an abortion or when talking about abortion, is because of stigma."
    Quote graphic that reads "Abortion is a normal medical procedure. It took five minutes."

To the right is a light red rectangle with a letter written by Alicia Garza that says (first paragraph): “Always remember that you belong here and that you are enough. There are countless ways in which the rules that govern our lives have shaped to devalue, de-prioritize & diminish us, but bigger than that, to encourage us to devalue, de-prioritize & diminish ourselves. Be a woman who celebrates and cheers on other Black women, who provides pathways for other women to succeed, and who is deliberate about being an example of what the world would look like if we celebrated, cheered, provided pathways were deliberate about supporting and advancing Black women.” The letter is over a dark red background. At the bottom white text that says “Letter to A Young Black Girl” COC x Women’s History Month.
