'Making Hyde History' exhibit & Can't Hyde the Future event

The clinic escort volunteer vest was donated by theThe Clinic Vest Project. The label explains how historically protesters had used fear and intimidation at clinics that provided abortions to deter patients. Volunteers would wear vests to signify they were there to keep patients safe.

Excited to share this project my partner Margaret Middleton and I are working on together. We created this history exhibit from the future about the repeal of the Hyde Amendment. The Hyde Amendment prohibits federal funds for being used for abortion which limits access to abortion and disproportionately affects low income women of color.

We're calling this project the #MuseumoftheFeministFuture and we debuted it at the Repeal Hyde Art Project's Can't Hyde the Future event. Very grateful for the support of Repeal Hyde Art Project, The Clinic Vest Project and Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund for this exhibit.

"Making Hyde History" is a history exhibit from an imagined future in 2067.
