Cheryl Vosseler, 17 (USA 1969)
A 17-year-old girl named Cheryl Vosseler and her baby were two of many killed by California’s early legalization of abortion.
On July 31, 1969, Cheryl went to Fresno General Hospital for an abortion. At that time, it was typical for abortions in California to be done in hospitals.
Only 2 weeks later, Cheryl was brought back to the hospital suffering from abortion complications. She had to undergo surgery on August 14, but the damage was too severe. She died on August 16.
Her death was not an isolated incident. Other maternal deaths from legalized abortion in California before Roe v. Wade include but are not limited to 19-year-old “Mary Roe”, 18-year-old Janet Foster, 16-year-old Natalie Meyers, Sara Lint, Twila Coulter, LaSandra Russ, Kathryn Marie Morse, Betty Gail Hines, Cassandra Kay Bleavins, Sharon Lee Margrave and Stella Saenz.
"California Death Index, 1940-1997," database, Cheryl L Vosseler, 16 Aug 1969; Department of Public Health Services, Sacramento.

Wade determination’s forty ninth anniversary, and audio system on the March for Existence Utah tournament have been hopeful the verdict could be overturned via the Perfect Court docket earlier than its fiftieth. Simply months previous, the court docket refused to dam a Texas legislation that bans a majority of abortions within the state, and the justices will quickly make a decision on a case over abortion restrictions in Missouri — which might overturn the verdict.(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Loads of anti-abortion activists rally at Professional-Existence Utah's March for Existence on the Utah Capitol on Saturday, along side the nationwide March for Existence in D.C., Jan. 22, 2022.Utah is one in all greater than 20 states that’s handed a ‘cause legislation,’ which might straight away ban nearly all optional abortions if the verdict is overturned.“Professional-Existence Utah and our allies have labored onerous over time to put a basis for a post-Roe nation and state,” mentioned Professional-Existence Utah president Mary Taylor. “So is our paintings whole? Sadly, no. If truth be told, we want all palms on deck greater than ever now if we wish to make sure an abortion-free state.”(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Utah legislators l-r Rep.

CRIPPLE LULLABY
by Cheryl Marie Wade
I’m trickster coyote in a gnarly-bone suit I’m a fate worse than death in shit-kickin’ boots
I’m the nightmare booga you flirt with in dreams ‘Cause I emphatically demonstrate: It ain’t what it seems
I’m a whisper, I’m a heartbeat, I’m "that accident," and goodbye One thing I am not is a reason to die.
I’m homeless in the driveway of your manicured street I’m Evening Magazine’s SuperCrip of the Week
I’m the girl in the doorway with no illusions to spare I’m a kid dosed on chemo, so who said life is fair
I’m a whisper, I’m a heartbeat, I’m "let’s call it suicide," and a sigh One thing I am not is a reason to die
I’m the poster child with doom-dipped eyes I’m the ancient remnant set adrift on ice
I’m that Valley girl, you know, dying of thin I’m all that is left of the Cheshire Cat’s grin
I’m the Wheelchair Athlete, I’m every dead Baby Doe I’m the Earth’s last volcano, and I am ready to blow
I’m a whisper, I’m a heartbeat, I’m a genocide survivor, and Why? One thing I am not is a reason to die.
I am not a reason to die.

For the last day of Disability Pride Month, 2020:
Disability Culture Rap, by Cheryl Marie Wade,
(Originally published in the September/October 1992 edition of "The Ragged Edge." Transcribed from a PDF originally posted here)
Disability culture. Say what? Aren't disabled people just isolated victims of nature or circumstance? Yes and no. True, we are far too often isolated. Locked away in the pits, closets and institutions of enlightened societies everywhere. But there is a growing consciousness among us: "that is not acceptable." Because there is always and underground. Notes get passed among servivors. And the notes we're passing these days say: "there's power in difference. Power. Pass the word." Culture. It's about passing the word. And disability culture is passing the word that there's a new definition of disability and it includes power. Culture. New definitions, new inflections. No longer just "poor cripple." Now also "CRIPPLE" and, yes, just "cripple." A body happening. But on a real good day, why not C*R*I*P*P*L*E; a body, hap-pen-ing. (Dig it or not.) Culture. It's finding a history, naming and claiming ancestors, heroes. As "invisibles," our history is hidden from us. our heroes buried in the pages, unnamed, unrecognized. Disability culture is about naming, about recognizing. Naming and claiming our heroes. Like Helen Keller. Oh, not the miracle-worker we're all so familiar with, but the social reformer, the activist who tried so desperately to use her celebrity to tell the truth of disability: that it has far more to do with poverty, oppression and the restriction of choices than it has to do with wilted muscles or milky eyes. And for her efforts to tell this truth, the was ridiculed, demeaned as revolutionaries often are. And because Helen Keller was a survivor, and that is the first thing any culture needs-- survivors who live long enough so that some part of the truth makes it to the next generation. Helen Keller was a survivor, so she pulled back from telling the fuller truth; that's often what survivors have to do: they have to swallow the rage, wear the mask, and, yes, pull back from telling it exactly like it is s that there might be a next generation. And so, Helen Keller, a survivor, we honor your as our ancestor, our hero. Naming and claiming our hidden history, our ancestors. Like the thousands of mental and physical "defectives," singled out for "special treatment" by the Nazis. Yes, disability culture is recognizing that we were the first victims of the Holocaust, that we are the people the Nazis refined their methods of torture on. So we must honor these unnamed victims as our ancestors, we must raise their unmarked graves into our consciousness, into the consciousness of America so it never happens again. And just as Native Americans insist the true name of discovery is genocide, more and more of us insist that the true name of "right to die with dignity" (without opportunities to live with dignity is murder, the first syllable of genocide. Naming and claiming our ancestors, our heroes. Like all those circus and carnival freaks, the first disability performance artists. Those rowdy outcasts who learned to emphasize their Otherness, turn it into work, a career, a life. Oh, it may have been a harsh life, sometimes even brutal, but a life: they kept themselves from being locked away in those institutions designed for the excessively different that have always been such a prominent part of the American economy. And so we claim those survivors as our ancestors and we honor them. Naming and claiming our ancestors, our heroes. Now most of you probably know the story of James Meredith, freedom fighter, African American, who helped break the color barrier, the racial barrier to higher learning by insisting he had a right to an education; insisting. And without that insistence, the doors of Ole Miss would have remained closed. But do you know the story of Ed Roberts, cripple freedom fighter, disabled man, who armed with self-esteem and a portable respirator, broke the disability barrier to higher learning by insisting that he had a right to an education, by insisting that the doors to the University of California at Berkeley be opened, and by doing so, laid a significant brick onto the foundation of the Independent Living Movement? Independent! Living! Movement! The language of it! -- that revolution of identity and possibilities for disabled people. The independent living movement. Oh, you may never have heard of it. It never made it into prime time. Norman Mailer did not rush out to capture its essence in 30,000 words. Yet it took root; it grew; it spread all across this country, all around the world -- because there is always an underground. Notes get passed among survivors. And the notes we're passing these days say: there's power in difference. Power. Pass the word. So what's this disability culture stuff all about? It's simple; it's just "This is disability. From the inside out." Culture. Pass the word. Now maybe the word is the moan and the wail of a blues. Maybe it's the fierce rhythms and clicking heels and castanets of flamenco. Maybe it's outsider art. Passing the word. Maybe the word word is authentic movement, that dance that flows from the real body notes of cripples. Maybe it's the way pieces of cloth are stitched together to commemorate a life, to remember a name. Maybe it's American Sign Language, a language that formed the foundation of a cultural identity for a people, Deaf people, and bloomed into ASL performance art and ASL mime. Culture. Sometimes it happens over coffee or on a picket line. A poem gets said and passed along. And passed back. Amended. Embellished. And passed along again. Language gets claimed. Ms. Gay. Crip. Guerrilla theater becomes theater with a soul. Teatro Campaesino. The Dance Theater of Harlem. And, of course, WRY CRIPS Disabled Women's Theater. Radical. True. Passing the word. Culture. Maybe so far you've been deprived.. Maybe right now the primary image you have of disability is that of victim. Perha[ps all you know of us is Jerry's Kids, those doom-drenched poster children hauled out once each year to wring your charitable pockets dry. But I promise you: you will also come to know us as Jerry's Orphans. No longer the grateful recipients of tear-filled hand-outs, we are more and more proud freedom fighters, taking to the streets, picket signs strapped to our chairs. No longer the polite tin-cupper, waiting for your generous inclusion, we are more and more proud freedom fighters, taking to the stages, raising our speech-impaired voices in celebration of who we are. No longer the invisible people with no definition beyond "Other," we are more and more proud, we are freedom fighters, taking to the streets and to the stages, raising our gnarly fists in defiance of the narrow, bloodless images of our complex humanity shoved down the American consciousness daily. And these changes, they will happen, just as the Independent Living Movement happened, just as the Rehabilitation Act's 504 regulations for access happened; just as the Americans with Disabilities Act -- the most comprehensive civil law ever written -- happened. Because there is always an underground. Notes will be passed among survivors. And the notes we're passing these day say, "There's power in difference. Power. Pass the word." Disability culture. What is it really all about? It's this. And this. And this. Yeah, _this_-- COMING AT YOU FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

Including interviews with well known disability rights advocates such as Cheryl Marie Wade, Mary Duffy and Harlan Hahn, Vital Signs conveys the intensity, variety and vitality of disability culture today. Open-Captioned. Contains strong language and nudity.” -Fanlight Productions

I think about your fic "I was an Island" from time to time. It was the first time I had ever seen sexual intrusive thoughts represented. Like I wasn't alone in dealing with it, safe to say reading that fic a year ago was one of my best decisions and I will carry it in my heart for a long time. Basically you make good fics and I'm really sorry you had a bad day. ( I tried sending this on CuriousCat but It didn't let me :p )
I'm so happy to hear that! That really means a lot to me. A big part of why fics like "I was an island" are written that way is because I couldn't find representations of how trauma and sexuality intersect that satisfied me -- the only time I'd seen sexual intrusive thoughts even spoken of were text posts here on tumblr. I'd tried to represent them in a few unsuccessful original fics that never got picked up, and then in "but I am home," messy though that fic was. But I'd say IWAI is my first real successful outing on that front.
Your comment reminded me a lot of when Cheryl Marie Wade said, "If we are ever really home in the world and in ourselves, then we must say these things out loud. And we must say them with real language." Now, she is talking about the "blunt, crude realities" of being physically disabled, but I think this applies to other forms of representation as well -- I've also been having very long and productive conversations with @edoro about the limitations of metaphor-heavy rep for things like csa, rape, and incest. Don't get me wrong, these representations have their uses, but we also need to say these things with real language, real words. And part of my project as an artist is saying them on another's behalf.
And TBQH the line "But the thought burns with anger far more than desire and lingers like stomach bile you can’t quite brush away, so Alberto has only jacked off to it twice" is honestly better than every EW fic I'd written trying to capture that same feeling, lol.
To circle back around to the start, again, it really means a lot to hear you say that. Thank you so much for the kind comment <3 Also, luckily my situation has been resolved. I'm a little emotionally worn -- I always am when I fight with my brother -- but he apologized to me and we talked it out.

what does the lettering on all your tattoos say??
thank you for asking, this was such a neat question to receive! my tattoos are in some selfies here (link) for those who haven’t seen them :)
the fork one says “I am not a reason to die” which is from the poem Cripple Lullaby by Cheryl Marie Wade (link) - cw for discussion of violent ableism
the deer one says “For water thou art, and unto water shalt thou return” which is from a poem by Kamand Kojouri; i got the tattoo in memory of my late mentor, whose life’s work was providing community-led, low-cost, sustainable clean water solutions for underserved & marginalized communities

Southside Christmas Olympics
Pairing: Sweet Pea x Reader
Words: 1000ish
Warnings: Mentions of bad childhood
Summary: It’s a silly tradition. But a tradition no less.
Notes: Filling the ‘Building A Snowman’ square on my @riverdalebingo bingo card!
The wind whips her hair from her shoulder, her back pressed up against cold metal, the edge of her jeans turning a deeper shade of blue as the water seeps in.
The nostalgia hits her the same time a flurry of snowflakes finds her, biting at the exposed skin on her cheeks.
She almost laughs, before she remembers she can’t give away her hiding spot and sinks down a little further, eyes scanning for a potential threat.
-
It starts when they’re 12. The six of them desperately trying to escape their home lives, even if the weather turned their noses red and their fingertips blue.
Toni throws the first snowball, landing it against Jughead’s forehead with a thud, an action declaring out right war.
Sweet Pea’s already gathering snow up in his arms before Jug even has time to react, while Fangs runs from an attack that Y/N’s already pelting at them.
The teams are decided quick. Toni, Pea and Joaquin, against Y/N, Jughead and Fangs, and after half hour of breathless laughter and humoured but determine shrikes, Sweet Pea declares his team the winners.
“No fair, I want a rematch!” Y/N stomps her foot into the snow, arms tight across her chest. Even then, she’s Pea’s fierce match in every single way.
“We won, fair and square!” He argues back, eyes holding hers in an angered stare, the bickering could go on for hours.
“How about we play something else?” Jug suggests, catching all of their attentions.
-
Jug’s idea comes in the form of rolled up snow and stolen carrots.
It’s simple really.
A race to build the best snowman, in the quickest time.
Only now their fingers are turning numb, and their teeth are chattering too much to stay still, it’s makes it a little more difficult than they thought.
Sweet Pea doesn’t know how they do it, one minute their snowman’s a pile of mush, and the next it’s towering three feet over his own.
“Finished!” There’s a triumphant tint to Fangs’ voice when he calls out and high fives his team mates.
This time there’s no fight about who’s won.
“Stupid thing.” Pea can’t help but kick his teams half built creation, sending it tumbling to the ground. He blushes when the others laugh. “It’s one all, we need a tie breaker.”
-
They make the sleds themselves. Two giant blown up rubber dinghies ready to go.
“First to the bottom wins.” Sweet Pea and Y/N both shake hands. They pretend not to know why their teams nominated them, but deep down they’re aware it’s because they’re both the most competitive, a burning desire to win.
They wait for the small count down to finish, and with a gentle shove they’re both off.
It’s slow at first, neck and neck besides each other but then Y/N takes off and he can’t seem to catch up.
It doesn’t matter what he tries, leaning forward, leaning back, nothing works and she crosses the finish line a full 10 seconds before he does.
Fangs and Jughead cheer from their spot on top of the hill.
They win the first year.
-
At 14 Jughead brings Archie and Betty along, an interesting twist to their two year tradition.
A year after Veronica follows, one perfectly manicured hand wrapped in Archie’s, the other dragging a solemn looking Reggie Mantle.
Jughead sees Fangs and Sweet Pea stand to protest, but calms them down with a simple ‘we need even numbers.’
16 brings Cheryl Blossom, red snow suit in toe, and an excited Kevin Keller, rounding their teams to 6 a piece.
When they’re 18, they’re surprised to find everyone’s coming home for Christmas, and the games can continue.
At 20 their hearts break when there’s no snow and Cheryl surprises them all with a trip to the alps.
“A gift from me to you.” She sing songs, blowing them all a kiss with a perfect cherry red pout.
“Girls got more money than sense.” A shocked Fangs had shook his head in disbelief.
Some would argue at 22, they’re too old for snowball fights and snowman building, but 10 years from the first time, they find themselves once again wading through the snow.
Y/N can see Fangs from where she’s hiding, his head pecking out above the bush he’s crouching behind. With an arm raised ready, she’s about to make her first move when something hits her square on the back.
“Gotcha ya.” He’s grinning when she turns around, a child like giddiness burning bright in his eyes. She usually loves it, but not right now.
“Pea!” It comes out more as a soft sigh than a whine when he wraps his arms around her waist.
“It’s just a game baby.” He chuckles, pulling her flush to his chest so he can whisper in her ear. Y/N melts against his warmth. “And I like to win.”
“Yeah well my snowman’s gonna kick your ass.” She’s pushing him away before their lips can meet, and doesn’t allow him time to be confused before she shouts out. “I found Pea, he’s behind Fangs’ truck!”
“Son of a-“ It’s too late to finish his sentence, a flurry of snowballs are already raining down on them and she smirks when a particular one finds its why under his clothes and makes him shudder.
“It’s just a game baby.” She kisses his cheek before she disappears, back to base to wait the game out with an already defeated Jughead, leaving him shaking his head.

Cheryl Vosseler, 17 (USA 1969)
A 17-year-old girl named Cheryl Vosseler and her baby were two of many killed by California’s early legalization of abortion. While the law didn’t technically say that abortion was legal on demand, that was effectively what happened.
On July 31, 1969, Cheryl went to Fresno General Hospital for an abortion. At that time, it was typical for abortions in California to be done in hospitals.
Only 2 weeks later, Cheryl was brought back to the hospital suffering from abortion complications. She had to undergo surgery on August 14, but the damage was too severe. She died on August 16.
Her death was not an isolated incident. Other maternal deaths from legalized abortion in California before Roe v. Wade include but are not limited to 19-year-old “Mary Roe”, 18-year-old Janet Foster, 16-year-old Natalie Meyers, 16-year-old Francesca Sardina, 15-year-old Gwendolyn Drummer, Denise Holmes, Margaret Davis, Sara Lint, Twila Coulter, LaSandra Russ, Doris Grant, Kathryn Marie Morse, Betty Gail Hines, Cassandra Kay Bleavins, Sharon Lee Margrave and Stella Saenz.
"California Death Index, 1940-1997," database, Cheryl L Vosseler, 16 Aug 1969; Department of Public Health Services, Sacramento.
California Certificate of Death 69-124954
Coroner’s Inquisition 21728

Patrice Holloway
Patrice Yvonne Holloway (March 23, 1951 – October 3, 2006) was an American soul and pop singer.
Career
Patrice Yvonne Holloway was born on March 23, 1951 in Los Angeles, California, the youngest of three children born to Wade Holloway, Sr. (August 13, 1920 – June 24, 2001) and his wife, the former Johnnie Mae Fossett. Patrice is the younger sister of Motown artist Brenda Holloway. Holloway also had a contract with Motown, recording songs such as "The Touch of Venus" and "For the Love of Mike", none of which were released. She recorded a few minor singles for the Capitol Records label during the mid-1960s, notably "Love And Desire", "Ecstasy" and "Stolen Hours", which became popular on the Northern Soul scene in the 1970s. She sang background vocals with her sister on many records for other artists, including Joe Cocker and the Grease Band's 1968 cover version of The Beatles' "With a Little Help from My Friends", later the theme song to the 1980s television series The Wonder Years. Patrice also recorded the soul classic, "Stay With Your Own Kind", which was noteworthy for its direct treatment of inter-racial relationships at a time when this was highly controversial. Patrice also co-wrote 'You've Made Me So Very Happy', which in 1969 rose to No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 when the band Blood Sweat & Tears covered it, two years after it was co-written and originally recorded by her sister Brenda.
Holloway is most noted for her work as the singing voice of Valerie in Hanna-Barbera's 1970 Josie and the Pussycats television series and on the concurrent Josie and the Pussycats album. Valerie was the first female African-American cartoon character to star as a television series regular, and was nearly cut from the show by Hanna-Barbera. Record producer Danny Janssen demanded that Holloway—and therefore Valerie—remain in the show, as he felt her voice was necessary to produce the Jackson 5-esque bubblegum pop that H-B had requested he produce. It is Patrice's voice that does lead on the series' theme song, 'Josie and The Pussycats,' amongst many other songs.
After the first season of Josie, Holloway recorded a few solo singles, produced by Janssen, for Capitol Records. Neither she, nor Pussycats bandmates Cheryl Ladd and Cathy Dougher, performed the songs for the second-season episodes, which were titled Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space.
Holloway died of a heart attack at the age of 55 on October 3, 2006.
