The war against women

by Elizabeth Creely (elizabeth creely [at] yahoo.com)
I'm posting this in the anti-war section because it isn't working for me at all, anymore to see the general erosion of reproductive rights and the utter lack of reproductive justice placed within the unnacceptably discreet catagory of women's rights/women's pages.
News Program Unmasks Truth About Abortion
By Bill Fancher and Jenni Parker

(AgapePress) - A groundbreaking new television series is about to expose viewers across the nation to the many faces and voices of real women who have experienced abortion and who want to see an end to the
legal murder of unborn children in America.

The Justice Foundation has put a breakthrough television program called Faces of Abortion on the Sky Angel satellite network. Foundation director Alan Parker calls this presentation a unique new weapon in the fight against legalized abortion. "It's the first time in American history," he says, "that women who want to see Roe v. Wade reversed are going on television three times a week to tell the stories of what their abortion did to them so that America will know
the truth -- that abortion hurts women."

In addition to the Faces of Abortion television series, Parker says a corresponding radio program is also airing with the same title. He notes that several of the women featured in the series were at a recent news conference telling their stories of post-abortion depression, sterility, suicide attempts, miscarriages, still-born births, increased chances of breast cancer, and other abortion-related medical problems that have devastated their lives, and the program is
already producing positive results.

"We've had many women call us after watching Faces of Abortion,because a few episodes have already begun to air," the Justice Foundation spokesman says, pointing out that many women confess they felt liberated by hearing these women talk about their experiences. "They say, 'I thought I was alone in my shame and my sorrow and the
secrecy,'" he explains, adding that many women open up and admit their own pain "when they hear other women are willing to come out and join
their sisters in telling the truth that abortion hurts women."

The program, officially launched last week, is part of an initiative called Operation Outcry, through which women whose lives have been devastated by abortion are being given the opportunity to share their stories with America. Parker says he expects this program will help
turn the tide in the battle against legalized abortion.
