To mark the Global Day to Destigmatise Abortions on 28 March, Supporting Abortions for Everyone (SAFE) is partnering with the iconic Feminist Library for a special one-off book club fundraiser!
We'll be reading My Notorious Life by Kate Manning. Inspired by the true history of an infamous female physician who was once called “the Wickedest Woman in New York” (Ann Trow Lohman, better known as Madame Restell), the book is a mystery, family saga, love story, and exquisitely detailed portrait of nineteenth-century America.
The evening is a space to discuss the book, explore The Feminist Library's incredible collection, rave about abortion and raise vital funds for those being failed by healthcare systems across Europe.
Why Your Ticket Matters
100% of proceeds from this event will be split evenly between S.A.F.E. and The Feminist Library. S.A.F.E. is a small charity providing the infrastructure for grassroots activists to put abortion pills into people’s hands and help people travel to clinics across Europe. The Feminist Library is an intersectional, abolitionist, trans-inclusive feminist community space and library.
