Abortion rights activists marched in the rain on Saturday.Abortion activists blocked a rosary procession to a Planned Parenthood clinic in Manhattan on Saturday, days after a leaked draft opinion from the Supreme Court predicted an imminent end to the landmark ruling in Roe v. Wade.
Several dozen protestors gathered in the rain on Saturday morning outside the church, which hosts a monthly anti-abortion mass and procession that ends at Planned Parenthood’s Bleecker Street site. Worshippers typically gather nearby as women enter the clinic.“As a gay woman, the oppressive Christianity services that come out to protest against clinics is vile and extremely harmful for everyone,” said Hannah Spring, an abortion-rights supporter from Bushwick.
