Poster, Our Bodies Our Choice

This is a Poster. It is dated 1990 and we acquired it in 1993. Its medium is spray paint (krylon) on heavy white paper. It is a part of the Drawings, Prints, and Graphic Design department.

Activism provides an opportunity for the public to come together to assert opinions in an effort to reform policy. Designer Sabrina Jones used this poster in counterdemonstrations against anti-abortion groups attempting to close down abortion clinics in New York.

This object was donated by Karrie Jacobs. It is credited Gift of Steven Heller and Karrie Jacobs.

Its dimensions are
