I am a life-long Virginian and am proud to claim that identity. Going to a college where most of the student body grew up in the north, I found myself constantly saying, “No, Virginia is not backwards. Yes, it is in the South—kind of. And no, Virginia is not a hotbed of ignorant people or politics.” Since politicians in Richmond have attempted to strip Virginian women of their right to safe and accessible reproductive healthcare, I am worried my northern friends will prove me wrong.
