Although it’s been said, many times, many ways, women still aren’t equal to men and reproductive rights are in danger.

Enter the Nasty Women’s Chorus, which actually includes some men because feminism is for everyone, who will be singing modified Christmas carols in New York City parks this Saturday, Dec. 17.
