Clinic Escorts: Stories from the Front Lines
The A is For Clinic Escorts Series Comic Book, edited by New Yorker artist Emily Flake, is a beautiful and compelling compilation. It tells the stories of abortion clinic escorts and illustrates - literally - the realities of being on the front lines, escorting patients through hostile crowds into clinics so they can receive needed medical care.
“In these pages, you’ll find the true stories of unsung heroes who’ve said yes to a very challenging job because they believe it has a higher purpose. They may be people you know, people you pass on the street every day, maybe even a friend who’s never told you why their weekends are so busy. They’re everybody who isn’t afraid of marching into the storm, even though, okay sure, they’re probably a little afraid. That storm looks nasty, and it won’t shut up about eternal damnation. But they do it anyway because getting through that storm is important.”
From the introduction by Eric Spitznagel and Kelly Kreglow
