Forum F.y.i.

August, 2001

Angered by President Bush's decision to ban funding for abortion counseling overseas, a San Francisco art student distributed this poster urging women to shave their pubic hair in protest. Her rallying cry: "No. Bush! It's not yours, it's mine!" Jackie Sumell hoped to collect 538 Baggies of hair--the number of certified votes by which Bush won Florida, plus one. She got 200, which she delivered to the steps of the Senate.
