On Tuesday, the actor posted a graphic featuring a quote from the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg via Instagram: "The decision whether or not to bear a child is central to a woman's life, to her well-being, and dignity. When the government controls that decision for her, she is being treated as less than a full adult human responsible for her own choices."
In an Instagram caption, Jamil wrote, "This of course applies to people of all genders who can become pregnant. But because for almost all of history we have looked at this as a woman's issue only, we have treated it with the same disregard, nay hatred as all women's issues. Because the patriarchy hates women, because they fear women . . . I'm so sorry. I'm so disgusted. We have time to turn this around. But we need to get motivated politically. Stop screaming at the wrong people. Start organising to put the right people in place to protect us from the ACTUAL bad people threatening the freedom of HALF THE COUNTRY."
