International Safe Abortion Day

September 28 is the global day of action to demand safe, accessible abortion for people everywhere. Originating in Latin America and the Caribbean, the date was chosen to commemorate the passing of the Law of Free Birth passed by the Brazilian parliament on September 28, 1871. This law was a key legal reform intended to provide freedom for the children of enslaved people in Brazil at the time. To commemorate September 28, SYA worked with CDMX-based artist Mar Lorenzo (aka marmarmaremoto) to create a series of international posters highlighting organizations who are doing amazing work around abortion access.
