(Allen J. Schaben / Los Angeles Times) Good morning and welcome to the Essential California [newsletter](. It’s Monday, June 27. I’m Marisa Gerber, filling in for Justin Ray. Protesters marched along the 110 Freeway on Friday waiting for their cue. “Supreme Court?” a voice beamed through a megaphone. “Illegitimate!” they chanted back. Later that evening, at a gathering on the grounds of All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena, a 17-year-old stood silently holding a candle and wearing a T-shirt that read, “Our Bodies. Our Futures. Our Abortions.” The next day, [another crowd packed]( into Pershing Square with handmade signs — one showed an image of a wire hanger and the words “NEVER AGAIN” and another read, “Against abortion? Have a vasectomy.” These were the sights and sounds of the first post-Roe vs. Wade weekend in one slice of a nation still stunned — some with joy, others with sadness and shame — by the [Supreme Court’s decision to end]( a constitutional right to abortion. It’s a decision that veteran Supreme Court reporter David G. Savage says [points to a larger pattern.]( “This is not the Supreme Court most Americans have known,” Savage writes. He highlighted two other recent rulings, which [struck down]( a New York gun law and [paved the way]( for parents to seek state aid for religious schools, as proof that the era of the court defined by moderates is over. That reality terrifies some Californians, including advocates for the queer community, who worry that the court’s conservative majority could soon move to reverse earlier rulings such as legalized same-sex intimacy and same-sex marriage, [my colleague Tyrone Beason reports.]( While reporting from the OC Pride parade this weekend, he met Yashia Garcia, who told him that she’d sobbed Friday morning after reading about the ruling — it felt, she said, as if the nation had reverted to a more repressive time. “My mother, who came to the country as an immigrant from the Dominican Republic in 1978, had more rights than I do today,” Garcia said. “I don’t have the word to describe how that feels. Well, I do, but they’re all curse words. More Roe vs. Wade coverage — “So what you’re saying is we can’t get an abortion today? I just drove eight hours.” My colleague Molly Hennessy-Fiske [takes us inside a Texas abortion clinic]( the moment the landmark case was overturned. — How did we get here? [Read about the four key turning points]( that led to the fall of Roe vs. Wade. — The Los Angeles Police Department’s [actions during abortion rights protests this weekend]( including shoving an independent journalist to the ground, are part of a broader, longstanding problem, press observers noted. — Across the Southland on Sunday, [some pastors praised the Supreme Court’s ruling and others lamented it.]( And now, here’s what’s happening across California: Note: Some of the sites we link to may limit the number of stories you can access without subscribing.

AND FINALLY Today’s California memory comes from David Frick: On May 7, 1959, my dad took me to see the Dodgers play the Yankees on Roy Campanella Night at the Los Angeles Coliseum. I still get chills thinking about the lights dimming and a record crowd of 93,000 holding up matches and lighters before cellphones were invented.
