Sia Acts As Abortion Activist For All Access Coalition

Australian Heroine Sia has done something completely out of character in speaking out about abortion rights and awareness in support of the All Access Coalition.

It’s a good time for music and musicians as more and more artists are pushing forward and using their talent and vocals to opt for social change and as a call to action. The latest to throw their hat into the ring is the talented, wig-wearing Sia.

The singer who is famously known for shying away from the lime-light has announced she will be headlining the Cleveland concert in Ohio’s Wolstien Centre on September 10th in hopes of activating awareness on the topic of abortion and abortion accessibility for women.

In a statement given to Billboard, the artist spoke of the All Access abortion awareness campaign saying “We all need to stand together and be a part of creating the future we hope to see. There is so much support out there for an inclusive, equitable society that it’s time we showed our collective power.”


The show is one out of a series of 30 shows – all free events which will be held nationwide (in America) in support of Abortion rights, abortion accessibility and awareness.

The concerts will be hosted by abortion awareness group, All Access Coalition, who are campaigning using the ‘biggest names in music and comedy’ to make ‘abortion access a reality’. As the right and will to abortion remains one of the most controversial topics of our time, it’s refreshing to see some big names getting involved to generate diverse awareness in support of giving women that right over their body, the option of choice and the facilities and accessibility to see it through. As it stands, abortion is a constitutional right in America in all 50 states, however access to abortion is somewhat limited.

Although it seems primitive that American’s have to campaign in order to get what is essentially NOT ONLY a legal right, but a basic Human Right, Sia’s support probably couldn’t have come at a better time! While many are in support of abortion accessibility, American presidential-elect, Donald Trump is in no way a fan of the All Access Movement, claiming to be “Pro-life”.

We can only hope that the empowering vocals of Sia may change some minds (including Trumps) and make abortion accessibility a reality.
