Singer Sia will openly champion abortion at a Cleveland concert next month. The free event calls for “women’s empowerment” – at the cost of human life.
Among others, Sia will sing in support of abortion at the Wolstein Center on Sept. 10. Hosted by Comedy Central’s Jessica Williams, the concert also boasts Latin singer Natalia Lafourcade and comedian Leslie Jones (Ghostbusters, Saturday Night Live).
The singer tweeted the news to her millions of fans:

The event is sponsored by an “All Access” coalition committed to “defending our access to abortion and celebrate women’s empowerment.”
“All Access is such an inclusive group that I’m proud to be a part of this,” Sia said of the event. “We all need to stand together and be a part of creating the future we hope to see. There is so much support out there for an inclusive, equitable society that it’s time we showed our collective power.”
The coalition plans to unite celebrities to “share their stories about why access to abortion strengthens women, families and ultimately the country.”
The coalition includes the following organizations:
ACLU
Advocates for Youth
All* Above All
Center for Reproductive Rights
NARAL Pro-Choice America Foundation
National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum
In Our Own Voice: National Black Women's Reproductive Justice Agenda
National Council of Jewish Women
National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health
National Network of Abortion Funds
Planned Parenthood Federation of America
URGE: Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity
SisterSong
Whole Woman's Health
Besides Cleveland, the coalition will host 30-plus similar concerts in locations including Atlanta, Chicago, Miami and Philadelphia.
On its new website, the coalition has already begun sharing “positive” abortion stories, like that of Shawanna:

The abortion industry has long boasted celebrity supporters, including Scarlett Johansson, Connie Britton, Natasha Leggero and Martha Plimpton.
