Operation Rescue is the same organization that hounded Dr. George Tiller in Wichita, KS, for years (until he was assassinated by one of their associates in May '09). Their original "Summer of Mercy" in 1991 shut down access to the Dr. Tiller's clinic for six weeks and resulted in 3,400 arrests, they are invoking this alarming history again in their "Summer of Mercy 2.0" event.  In honor of Dr. Tiller who lived by the motto, "Trust Women", we are building for the Summer of Trust.  Pro-choice activists and organizations are joining together to mount a serious and determined showing of public support for Dr. Carhart and the Germantown, MD, clinic, and the legal right to choice.  Join us in Los Angeles on July 17th to raise funds for two important efforts: 1) Send young people from L.A. to join the frontlines of the struggle in Maryland for the Summer of Trust; 2) Support Revolution Books as a center for the movement for revolution.  Learn more about this crucial struggle, and participate in an afternoon of spoken word, dramatic readings, an art auction, and music.
