In the wake of the June 24 Supreme Court ruling denying a constitutional right to abortion, some abortion-rights supporters are turning to body art to vent their frustrations, state their positions and ease their grief over the loss of what they believe should be a basic right. Meanwhile, tattoo artists and shops around the country are conducting pro-choice flash sales – one-day events offering themed designs at reduced rates – with proceeds benefiting abortion-rights advocacy organizations. “It’s to let them know they can have their voice heard in the area of bodily autonomy,” said Maiah Bennett, a tattoo artist at Bohemian Tattoo in California.
