Pussy Riot set to perform in Alabama and raise money to counter 'ridiculous' abortion ban.
A Russian punk band well-versed in protests is lending its support to those fighting to overturn abortion restrictions in Alabama.
The bill was signed into law in mid-May by Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, but has yet to go into effect due to legal challenges. "It just gave it a little more of a layer of importance to them to come to Alabama and play this show, as opposed to it maybe just being a concert where Pussy Riot was playing. But [for] a band that kind of revolves around protests, it just kind of made sense," Teasley said.
