My name is Sarah Elizabeth Jones, I am a (cisgender) woman, and this is my story.
The days, weeks, and months following the Presidential election were some of the most angriest, anxious, and exhausting in my short life. In the months following Trump's inauguration, protests were organized every weekend, sometimes even every evening. Poverty and hunger are at an all-time high. My girlfriend lost her job at the Starbucks for having blue hair and voting for Kamala Harris in the primary. Under Trump’s new “America First” policy, only Christians are allowed to own businesses, and women are forced to wear pink “modesty” hijabs and can be arrested for not having a man with you at all times. On top of that, I am forced to carry a rape whistle and a box of condoms in my purse and if I get attacked the police won't even help me because it's a "man's job" to protect me. My friend Alicia was beaten and raped for being a transgender woman, and the police didn't do anything about it because she was LGBT. The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and now women are being taken away in handcuffs for getting the morning after pill from black market after all the Planned Parenthood clinics got shut down. A few months ago, a new law was passed that made abortion punishable by death, and my friend Alyssa was executed via hanging for "killing" a fetus. And my friend Sarah's little sister's classmate was raped by a man and is forced to carry the child to term and give birth to her rapist's baby. My college friend and I were arrested at a protest and I was forced to get a cavity search and the police said I was "asking for it" because I had short hair. And my friend was beaten up at school for being gay and her parents sent her to conversion camp, but she escaped and now we are hiding in Canada under fake names.
