Ariana DeBose Says 'My Country Is At War With Me' After Recent Supreme Court Rulings

Ariana DeBose is speaking out against the recent Supreme Court rulings.

The 31-year-old Oscar-winning actress shared her thoughts during an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Thursday (June 30) in New York City.

Ariana spoke out against the overturning of Roe v. Wade and Justice Clarence Thomas‘ concurring opinion, in which he voiced his hopes to strip rights to contraception and gay marriage.

“I’m Black, I’m Afro-Latina, I’m a woman and I’m queer. My country is at war with me, and that’s hard,” Ariana said.

“Clarence Thomas was very clear on what his plan is. He’s not just coming for women — they already came for voting rights, they’re gonna continue,” she continued. “But they’re coming for marriage equality. And, quite frankly, they’ll probably come for adoption rights, by same-sex couples.”

Ariana told the crowd, “So this is the time to get in the fight, and it starts on a local level. So find ways to get involved.”

After the interview aired, Ariana tweeted, “This is not about one set of rights. This is about human rights. Find your local abortion fund and consider donating monthly at abortionfund.org.”
