Bans Off Our Bodies Rally in Ashland, Oregon

 Today was the day the Women's March, Planned Parenthood, and a number of other groups organized rallies all over the country in protest over Sam Alito's leaked USSC draft that would overturn Roe v. Wade.

In Ashland, Oregon, at least several hundred people, if not a couple of thousand, marched from the Ashland Library to the Plaza downtown, with lots and lots of people honking their cars in support.  Ashland, Oregon, is a very blue, and very isolated, part of the very, very red part of Oregon.  The southern and eastern parts of the state are as red as anything in the Deep South.

I was there at the march for the first hour.  There were free signs, free buttons, free hats, and free t-shirts, which I picked up.


Here are a few photos.  This group of photos was taken at the Ashland Library:
