The Best President in the United States

Via [livejournal.com profile] comeoneileen, and originally via [livejournal.com profile] kathrynt, who spoke to Ms. Fire Thunder:

In light of the late unpleasantness in South Dakota, President Cecelia Fire Thunder of the Oglala Sioux Tribe has announced her intention to open a Planned Parenthood clinic on the Pine Ridge reservation, where the state of South Dakota has no jurisdiction:

Bearing in mind that the Pine Ridge Reservation is not exactly dripping with disposable income, consider donating funds to the tribe. If you want your check used exclusively for the Planned Parenthood project, make it out to "OST Planned Parenthood Cecelia Fire Thunder." Mail it to:

Oglala Sioux Tribe
ATTN: President Fire Thunder
P. O. Box 2070
Pine Ridge, SD 57770

OR (and this may be preferred, due to mail volume):

ATTN: President Fire Thunder
PO BOX 990
Martin, SD 57751

Very awesome. It is so sick that abortion was made illegal in the first place. This type of resistance is so valuable because it not only delivers a political message but it is also helpful in practice.

That is really cool. I hope they're successful.
