We have created this account because we want to make a change, for all of us. Parents, adults, and our president (given the recent events), and those who are oblivious to the actuality of our lives and what is happening in them. Help me make a change and share to the people you know.

Tumblr stands with Planned Parenthood. We believe that access to their vital healthcare services is a fundamental human right. In times like these, we must take it upon ourselves to support them on behalf of the millions of women who depend on them.

Join us on Sunday, March 12 at 6:00pm CT at Mohawk, 912 Red River Street, Austin TX during the SXSW interactive festival for the “Never Going Back” rally for Planned Parenthood.

The all-ages event is open to the public (RSVP here) and will feature live performances by Sleigh Bells, Girlpool (@girlpoool), Hoops, and PVRIS (@thisispvris). Planned Parenthood reps will be on site to share resources, literature and ways to get involved and stay active.

If you can’t join us in person, please join us in spirit with a donation to Planned Parenthood.

And if you’re in town early, Tumblr CEO David Karp and Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards will be discussing the importance of activism and allyship on the SXSW stage on March 10 with moderator Aminatou Sow, Editor-at-Large at Racked.

I stand with Planned Parenthood.

Instagram account!

I've made an Instagram account: thestoriesoftheteens I'm trying to spread the word so please share!

How will I make a change?

This is the beginning of something big. For all of the people who are young adults (anyone in college and below), will be able to take part in a book. Yes, a book. Though, this book will be filled with the stories of our peers. The stories of the LGBTQ community and how people have treated them. Girls who have had abortions or anything that has to do with contraceptives. I will put these stories into an eye-opening book, anonymously. I want to show parents, Trump, and anyone who doesn’t understand YOUR point of view what it’s really like to be in your position. This book is about you. I’ll keep updates, pictures, and motivational quotes here. I’ll be making a questionnaire if you’d like to tell me your story. My school counselor will be helping me and I will be attending a writing group. Please help me make this change in The Stories Of The Teens.
