Steele, Tacie Davis Cooper, photograph
Cynthia Tucker's grandmother, born April 25, 1917. A July 19, 1936 article from the West Chester, PA Daily Local News newspaper stated, "Mrs. Tacie Steele was last night elected permanent chairman of the Citizens' Civic and Welfare Club, an auxiliary unit to the recently organized Citizen's Political Club of Chester County. Mrs. Steele is s committee woman." Cynthia was so proud to find this clipping amongst family artifacts given to her by her mother. "I always wondered why I was so eager and interested in community work. Now I know." Tacie Steel's mother was Mary Etta Draper Cooper Washington Dorin (9/5/1874-11/22/1971) and lived in Philadelphia, PA.

Kat Wood holding a sign reading, "Fundamental human rights should NOT depend on your zip code!" with an LGBTQ pride flag sticker and a map of the United States with x-marks over states that restrict or outlaw abortion access.
Interviewer: What brings you here today?
"Oh, so much anger and so much sadness. Um, Roe has been around my entire life and I can’t believe we’re fighting the fights of our grandmothers again and again and again… and trans people and non-binary people are especially gonna be hurt by these laws. I mean, really, all people who need abortion care and need health care deserve to be able to have that equitably and safely and with dignity and I can’t believe we’re having to fight this again."

Serena Jouers holds her small dog and a sign reading, "If I wanted the government in my uterus I'd fuck a politician."
"I feel like I need to do what I can to help spread the message and to help show that we will stand up for our rights and not let this get overturned and that there’s people out here, everywhere, that want – that feel passionately about it."

Autumn Fiore holds a sign reading, "If your activism isn't intersectional, then who is it for?"
"Overturning Roe v. Wade is much more than just taking away a person’s bodily autonomy, it could be a slippery slope into other landmark Supreme Court decisions that protect our rights to privacy, bodily autonomy, and just, our choices to do what we would like. Uh, and so I wanna take a stand and make sure that doesn’t happen. Um, the government doesn’t have a right to dictate who we choose to marry, whether we choose to keep a pregnancy, none of it. Um, and I know that there worst fear is us standing up for our rights, but, that doesn’t mean that we just let them do whatever they want."
