Books to Empower

The overruling of Roe V. Wade is a hotbutton issue at the moment. One that, frankly, can make plenty of us uneasy, even angry. We do have the advantage of states’ rights; some of us more than others. Still, to help keep the activists of today (and tomorrow) motivated, I thought I’d recommend some literature. I hope one of these books inspires you. Take care.
