DB sits down with Winnie, Community Outreach and Training Chair for Stand With Abortion Now (SWAN), to talk revolutionary optimism, punk rock-style activism, TikTok fundraising, and unorthodox strategies to outwit anti-abortion protestors in Orlando, Florida. They dive into SWAN's extremely successful Tiktok presence, why it's resonating, and how to use social media as an effective tool in activist work. Winnie shares more about the ongoing struggle for abortion access in Florida, as the clinic SWAN supports is facing a $193,000 fine for violating the 24-hour law. DB and Winnie discuss the right-wing nonsense that has made abortion increasingly inaccessible, and how their organization has been able to fundraise an unprecedented amount to fight the fine.
