“No Matter What: A Pop-Up by Planned Parenthood” will open in Los Angeles from October 16–17. The immersive, two-day public experience will center the stories of patients and providers and explore the realities of the reproductive health care access crisis. It highlights the devastating impact of the ongoing attacks on care and Planned Parenthood.
The activation comes at a particularly timely moment of heightened civic engagement and conversation around the power people have to shape the future of their communities. “No Matter What” offers Angelenos a tangible, immersive look at the real-world impact of access to essential health care and the experiences of people navigating today’s reproductive health care landscape.
The “No Matter What” pop-up guides visitors through a series of powerful, sensory experiences grounded in the care Planned Parenthood health centers provide. Without this care, people are driven to travel further, wait longer, pay more for, or go without care entirely. The installation reveals the toll of losing access through the voices of patients and providers.
Following the first “No Matter What” installation in New York City earlier this year, the Los Angeles pop-up will be free and open to the public, with pre-registration required at https://p.ppfa.org/nomatterwhat.
There is a benefit of roasting food on skewers, à la shish kebab. By cutting meat and vegetables into smaller uniform pieces, the marinade coats more and the food cooks evenly.
The tight relationship between Trump and Netanyahu masks the real debate over Israel churning in the Republican Party, and Israel’s standing among Democrats has never been lower.
Some emphasized the importance of combating antisemitism and protecting Jewish safety, while others called for political engagement and cooperation across party lines.
So here we are, stuck with just a few bad options to consider. And that’s just the political superposition of undetermined future – alongside it there’s also the possible – probable? – war with Iran.
At a time when Jewish education is competing for attention in a world dominated by screens, sports, short-form videos and endless streams of content, these easily collectable cards offer a different kind of engagement.
There is little chance that the combination of a weakened Trump and an emboldened Democratic Congress produces similar levels of support for aggressive action against Iran and its proxies, and other policies that a wide spectrum of Israelis see as crucial to their security.
In the diaspora and in Israel, we cannot turn back the clock and undo the harm that was done to us. But we can shape our own future. Israel is strong and resolute. So must we be.
Democrats who were long considered “moderates” or even pro-Israel have been signaling over the course of the last year that they can no longer be relied upon to back a Jewish state under assault by Iran and its terrorist proxies.
