The Catturd Deficit “Project 2025 was tested by Alabama” with Robin Marty
Robin Marty is playing the long game.
As the executive director of West Alabama Women’s Center (WAWC) and the author of “New Handbook for a Post-Roe America,” she is living the nightmare of Project 2025 in Tuscaloosa. Every day, she sees the purposeful misery of a system ruled by right-wingers who’d rather people be sick than vote. Yet she still believes abortion will be legal again one day in Alabama.
That’s why she’s determined to keep the WAWC open, ready to help any Alabamian who needs it.
But she needs your help. $10-a-month donors are helping her clinic and her patients stay alive, providing birth control, preventative care, and now gender-affirming care.
In this conversation, Robin explains the Post-Roe mess we’re in and not just in Alabama or the South, and she offers the only way out.
She also provides the best and most hopeful analogy for how America’s experiment with abortion bans can and should end. And she also convinced me to become a $10-a-month donor to the WAWC. I hope you’ll join me.
