EVENTS
This Events page will be regularly updated with ways to learn more and get involved with groups working to protect fundamental human rights and responsibilities, including the rights to life*, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; the right to assemble and to remain silent; the right to vote and to due process; and above all, the responsibility to care for each other and to be a good ancestor.
*As in the Declaration of Independence, not to be mistaken for anti-choice rhetoric!
