Hi everyone, sorry if this is controversial. I truly don’t mean it to be. I am an advocate for women’s rights and I often pass the Planned Parenthood office on Genesee St. and lately I’ve been getting targeted because the women standing there just recognize me and now consider me and “ally”…. I am not.

Fast forward to today, the security guard told me that the protesters are there every Wednesday because apparently it’s “national abortion day”. The protesters cannot go on the sidewalk but they stand next to a tree on public property.

Here’s my proposition— and I’m willing to make sure this can happen every. single. Wednesday. :

I am going to set up a lemonade stand that will offer free lemonade and/or donations to Planned Parenthood. I will provide the refreshments, the table, or anything else. By doing this, I hope not only will the women stop harassing women walking into the clinic, but it will defeat them and their purpose.

Please let me know if anyone is willing. Also lmk if this is a stupid idea, I’m totally cool with that too.

**PSA: I’m totally cool w ppl coming to just support or working with me. I want to make it clear that we will not be harassing the protesters, just simply taking their spots. HOWEVER, if you’d like to argue your opinion, that’s entirely your CHOICE**
