GREEN BANDANA FOR FREE LEGAL SAFE ABORTION RIGHTS GREEN WAVE



The green scarf is a symbol of the movement for the right to abortion, created in Argentina in 2003 and popularized since 2018 throughout Latin America and then in the United States in 2022. It is inspired by the white scarves worn by the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo.


In May 2022, the green scarf was also used in the United States during the marches in defense of the right to abortion, threatened by a possible overturn of Roe versus Wade decision.[1][2][7][8]


In June of 2022, after the supreme court overturned Roe versus Wade with the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization ruling, protests broke out in many United States cities,[11] with some protestors using green scarves with the inscriptions "RiseUp4AbortionRights" and "Green4Abortion"
