Stevie Nicks Says Her New Pro-Abortion Song ‘May Be The Most Important Thing I Ever Do’

Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks is proudly promoting her new pro-abortion song, saying it could be the “most important” single she’s ever written.

The 76-year-old musician released “The Lighthouse” on Friday, representing her first solo single in four years. Nicks said she wrote the song following the Dobbs Supreme Court decision in 2022, which overturned Roe v. Wade and the constitutional right to abortion.

“I find it very sad, at 76 years old, I had to see Roe v. Wade taken away,” Nicks told People in an email interview. “Two years ago, when I realized the consequences of women’s rights that are vanishing, I watched a lot of news, and I was like a sponge — it just went into me.”

“One morning I woke up… which, I never write when I wake up in the morning, and all of a sudden went, ‘I have my scars, I have my scars,’ so I just grabbed my notebook, and I started writing the whole thing,” she continued. “It was a long-form poem, and I didn’t know what kind of song that would be. I found an instrumental that I loved and within two or three days, I had recorded the song. I never redid the vocal — it’s an original vocal — and it’s taken me two years.”

She went on to discuss the many people in the music industry, including Sheryl Crow, who helped develop the song over the past two years until Nicks deemed it “perfect” enough to release.

“All the stories that we tell about the necessity for women’s healthcare and the necessity for a safe and legal abortion option for women is absolutely necessary,” Nicks told the outlet.

“It seemed like overnight, people were saying, ‘What can we, as a collective force, do about this…’ For me, it was to write a song,” she shared on X. “I have often said to myself, ‘This may be the most important thing I ever do.’ To stand up for the women of the United States and their daughters and granddaughters ~ and the men that love them. This is an anthem.”

Nicks had previously expressed that she believed Fleetwood Mac never would have existed if she hadn’t had an abortion when she was younger. “There’s just no way that I could have had a child then, working as hard as we worked constantly. And there were a lot of drugs, I was doing a lot of drugs … I would have had to walk away,” she said of aborting the child she conceived with Eagles singer Don Henley in 1979.

“I have my scars, you have yours/ Don’t let them take your power,” the chorus says. “Don’t leave it alone in the final hours/They’ll take your soul, they’ll take your power.” 

“You should be afraid,” another line of lyrics said before delving into lighthouse metaphors. “You’ve gotta get in the game, you’ve gotta learn how to play,” the song goes on. “You’ve gotta make a change/ you’ve gotta do it today.”

House Committee Blasts Harvard For Not Suspending Anti-Semitic Students

Harvard University, which referred 68 students for discipline for conduct they exhibited as members of an anti-Israel encampment, has failed to suspend even one of the students and left most of them in good standing, according to a House Committee on Education and the Workforce report.

“Harvard has failed to impose meaningful discipline on antisemitic students who engaged in conduct in violation of University rules,” the committee stated. Fifty-two of the 68 student encampment participants referred for discipline are in good standing, the report stated, with 15 on probation and one on leave.

Roughly two weeks ago, The Dean of Students Office at Harvard restored the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee’s full privileges after the group had been suspended for five months for violating Harvard’s protest guidelines. “As a recognized student group, the PSC will be able to access Harvard mailing lists, reserve certain rooms and spaces across the University, and apply for funding through the Harvard Undergraduate Association,” The Harvard Crimson reported.

One student who raised a Palestinian flag over University Hall “was initially informed he would receive a three-semester suspension. Thereafter, however, the consequential three-semester suspension was downgraded to mere probation until December 20, 2024,” the committee report noted.

“Four other encampment participants were first required to withdraw for two terms but will now be off probation in less than a month, according to the committee,” The Washington Free Beacon reported, adding, “Though the school referred 12 students for discipline over anti-Semitic incidents during that period, none of them ‘received any formal discipline and all remain in good standing.’”

“As these examples demonstrate, Harvard investigated and documented student violations of its policies, some of which were deemed to warrant semesters-long suspensions, but ultimately failed to enforce its own rules and impose meaningful discipline,” the committee stated. “Imposing such discipline would have been consistent with the Harvard Corporation’s pronouncement that ‘calls for violence’ and academic disruptions would ‘not be tolerated.’  The records, however, reveal that Harvard failed to fulfill this commitment and has permitted students to engage in such conduct with no real consequences.”

“By doing so, the House Committee on Education and the Workforce believes Harvard is in violation of Title VI,” the committee concluded.

Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), chairwoman of the committee, declared, “Harvard failed, end of story. The only thing administrators accomplished is appeasing radical students who have almost certainly returned to campus emboldened and ready to repeat the spring semester’s chaos. Harvard must change course immediately.”
