For her Menstrual Freedom is an action call! It is taking the niche struggle of menstrual justice work and uniting it with other struggles - the fight for abolition, the fight for reproductive justice, and more.

The link of struggles is important because it offers deeper context and interrogation of the systems at large that create huge impacts on the lives of every menstruator. Menstrual Freedom is a desire to fight against all systems of oppression that limit all menstruators.

And yes, one of the first policies we implemented was paid menstrual leave. Because the future we want can start now.

#Menstruation is often discussed in hushed & discreet voices, as if it’s something to be ashamed of. More than half of female and male respondents in a study even agreed that there’s a stigma around menstruation. Learn more at bit.ly/2TQByXR #stopthestigma #periodpoverty

"During the transition between middle school and high school, I got my period as a bonus. I was actually in the mall when this happened. I was so confused about what was going on but I didn't think much of it. I didn't even understand what a period was until my mom told me."
