Quote from Naomi Beinart, a 16 year old High School Junior. "We girls woke up to a country that would rather elect a man found liable for sexual abuse than a woman. Where the kind of man my mother instructs me to cross the street to avoid will be addressed as Mr. President. Where the body I haven't fully grown into may no longer be under my control. The boys, it seemed to me, just woke up on a Wednesday."

Black and white photograph of an old wood building on a dirt street. The sign over the front porch says CAFE in capital letters; below that is the Coca-Cola trademark. Overlaying the scene is a transparent image of a woman standing ghost-like in the street. She's facing the viewer and is also in black and white. She is wearing a short sleeve shirt of grey and her straight knee-length skirt has been colorized in turquoise; her arms are folded upwards in front of her body with hands clasped lightly near her cheek; her legs aren't visible as she fades away toward the bottom of the frame.

The bad news for women's rights just doesn't seem to let up. Missouri is at the top of my newsfeed this morning.
