Latto Teams up with Planned Parenthood for Abortion Rights PSA
Latto has been vocal in opposition to the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade a few months ago, and now, she’s turning her protest into a public service announcement.
Joining forces with Planned Parenthood, the “Big Energy” rapper starred in a PSA urging people to join the fight for abortion rights and access.
“We have to decide when and where we want to be a parent,” she says in-part during the 30-second PSA. “That’s why I’m joining with Planned Parenthood to fight to restore our rights and expand access to care.”
Previously, Latto released her track “P***y,” a pointant feminist anthem that serves as a response to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
“We already know who’s going to be hurt the most by these ridiculous abortion bans: Black women, Brown women, the LGBTQ+ community, and communities with low incomes,” Latto said in a statement, according to Billboard. “Because of this country’s history of racism and discrimination, these folks already have a hard time getting the health care they need. We all deserve to be safe and it’s every person’s right to make decisions about their own bodies.”
She added: “As an artist, I want to use my platform to let these politicians know: My body is for no one to control, but me.”
