Of the six seats in the Louisiana House of Representatives that represent New Orleans, five of them are consistently held by Democrats. One, District 94 which consists of parts of Mid-City, Lakeview, Lakeshore, Bucktown and Metaire has been held historically by Republicans and currently is held by Stephanie Hilferty (R). Rep. Hilferty has consistently voted with her GOP colleagues as they deny progress and consistently pass draconian, regressive, bills. This week, on behalf of Indivisible New Orleans, Kenny announced that they will be endorsing and supporting Dr. Tammy Savoie (D) to be the next representative from District 94. Dr. Savoie joins us in studio to talk about what motivated her to run, her plans for the district and how you can get involved in flipping the Louisiana Legislature this fall. We were also joined by Amy Irvin, Executive Director of The New Orleans Abortion Fund to talk about the 6-week abortion ban that passed last week. Amy talks with us about what the GOP is trying to accomplish with this bill and the others like it that have passed in states like Alabama and Georgia, what advocates are doing to fight back and how you can get involved in the fight to protect a woman's right to bodily autonomy.  All this an more on this week's episode of #ResistanceRadio!

If you're a woman, it's turning out to be a weird year. Suddenly we're all up in arms about whether or not the State is going to let you have an abortion. If you're a woman who would prefer to have the choice about whether or not to have an abortion, rather than leave that decision to a guy in Baton Rouge, Amy Irvin is your best friend. As the Executive Director of the New Orleans Abortion Fund, Amy is literally out there fighting for you. So, hey, cut her a bit of slack if she can't remember the phrase "pro choice" after a couple of cocktails. Theophile Bourgeois IV is a tattoo artist and the front man for New Orleans band Them Ol' Ghosts. Theophile, pronounced Thay-o-feel (it's very Cajun French) has graduated from tattooing drunk people from his old shop next to strip parlor, to working banker's hours from his shop on Oak Street, in Uptown New Orleans. TBIV has a disarmingly beautiful voice, even when singing the acerbic love song he wrote for his wife, "Bitch, I wrote this song for you" with tender loving lyrics like "“I know you’re worried I’m a narcissistic inconsiderate asshole, but don’t you worry baby ‘cause this heart belongs to you.” Given that we're almost halfway through the year, Theophile Bourgeois might be your best find of 2019 so far. If you're interested in the truth, so is Jonathan Blake Vasquez. Jonathan recently moved to New Orleans from Dallas, and brought his Truth Hurts Podcast with him. It's a no-punches-pulled look at life. And what we find out in this conversation is that the whole enterprise has the unlikely subversive intent of turning us all into Vegans.  Back to the being a woman thing again for a moment. If you're a woman, no doubt you've been hit on in almost every way imaginable. Well, guess what? There's one more way you hadn't imagined. Happy Hour photographer Alison Moon is back in town on a break from her stint as a grad student at Oxford University, with alarming tales of how the brainiac class of guys try and get women into bed. It's fairly unbelievable so in the interest of spoilers we won't ruin it for you. But if you've got time to kill, this insight is almost worth the whole price of admission to this Happy Hour.

It's also available as a video at https://www.facebook.com/neworleanspodcasts/ Happy Hour is recorded live at Wayfare in Uptown New Orleans. Photos by Jill Lafleur.

She struggled financially growing up with her mother and into her early 20s, working to put herself through school. Amy talks to us about her experiences in college: how she felt free in the world of academia, enjoyed learning and took time off realign and travel, as well as her own personal experiences with abortion.Amy found her way to New Orleans, by way of Turkey, and experienced first hand how limited access to abortion resources was in the city, and the state of Louisiana . More, and more, certain lawmakers are making it harder and harder for women to, not only, exercise their right to choose but to access overall reproductive health resources.

"Listening to the rhetoric of anti-abortionists in and outside of government, it sometimes takes an effort to remember that abortions have been happening for as long as there have been humans and the right to a safe abortion has been protected by the United States Constitution since the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. But, this is Louisiana where even lost causes are never actually admitted to be lost. We talk in tongues, never saying in public what we mean in our hearts. Unless, of course, we slip and the bile in the form of hatred comes spewing out. Louisiana's fetus fetish grew out of the same cultural cul-de-sac that venerates confederate leaders but ignores their barbarous acts. Anti-abortionism uses the fetus to bludgeon the rights of women. It was not until the 1970s in Louisiana that women got the right to borrow money on their own. The resentment against that has never died down. Louisiana's restrictions on women's health options have much less to do with the alleged sacredness of life (the canard that is exposed every day in this state by a long litany of statistics ranging from high poverty rates, poor health outcomes, low levels of education, the highest rate of incarceration, etc.) than with the urgent desire of insecure men to maintain control over the lives of women. Thus, you have the anti-regulatory legislature passing an increasingly arcane set of regulations on abortion clinics. You have legislators in a state with high teen pregnancy rates fighting to keep sex education out of schools. And you have legislators gutting funding for the Department of Children and Family Services on one day while trying to tighten abortion regulations the next. We are a backwards state because our elected leaders consistently try to drag us back to a white male supremacy fantasy world of where everyone knew their place and Trey's son could get a job at a bank even it he couldn't count too well. The confederate monuments fight has served two extremely useful purposes. The first is that it has forced us to examine our history. Those monuments had nothing to do with the Civil War but much more to do with trumpeting the rule of white supremacy harkened by the Plessy v. Ferguson decision. The second thing it has accomplished is peel back the thin veneer of politeness and exposed the ugliness that lurks just below it in the bright light of day. Women seeking abortions have seen this ugliness every time they have approached a clinic to exercise their right to a safe medical procedure. The people who protest and try to block them from exercising their right don't care about the women and they don't care about the fetus that the women want to abort. What they care about is attempting to exercise control over those women in a desperate attempt to cling to the illusion of a past that they can't allow themselves to comprehend. What unites opponents of removing confederate monuments with anti-abortion activists is the fear and hatred that lies at the core of their beliefs, but which erupt from time to time in ways that are so stark and pronounced as to reveal their alleged higher purpose to be a scam. Amy Irvin and I had a great conversation. I'm proud to be included as member of the New Orleans Abortion Fund board of directors."

Even for New Orleans, this is an unusual bar scene: a woman in a vagina costume, a drag queen, and a super sexy African American guy having drinks. Which one would you like to know about first? Okay, the drag queen. That s Kitty d Litter. It s 3pm on a Wednesday afternoon and Kitty is wearing what she calls "Day Drag." The difference between day and night drag is that day drag is a little more subdued. Yes, apparently walking around with gigantic costume jewelry, enormous eyelashes, high heels, and an eye catching electric blue dress is a step down from Kitty s regular attire. If you ve ever wondered why certain gay guys like to dress in drag and what it entails, check out this frank conversation. What would make you want to walk around dressed like a vagina, or more strictly, a vulva? Amy Irvin is making a point about women, their vaginas, and raising money for the New Orleans Abortion Fund of which she is Executive Director. The fund gives money to women who can t afford it to pay for an abortion. That sounds like a job that s about as serious as you can get. But if you want a lesson in how to get a difficult and contentious point across with humor and and reason, take a listen to Amy. J Sharp has the sexiest voice in New Orleans. That s not independently verified but you couldn't get much more of a cross section random sample of New Orleanians than around this table and they all agree. J is a co founder, keyboard player and singer in the super tightest and slickest funk band to come out of New Orleans in years - Water Seed. If you've heard any of the band's past 5 records or caught them at anything from Jazz Fest to their regular gig on Frenchmen Street, you'll agree. If you've never heard Water Seed and you like funk like Parliament and The Meters, consider your life changed. And check out their new record, "We Are Stars." Photos at Wayfare by Alison Moon.
