DESCRIPTION:video showing followed by discussion: "I Had an Abortion" \na film by 
 Gillian Aldrich and Jennifer Baumgardner \n\nEach year in the US, 1.3 
 million abortions occur, but the topic is still so stigmatized it's never 
 discussed in polite company. Powerful, poignant, and fiercely honest, I HAD 
 AN ABORTION tackles this taboo, featuring 10 women - including feminist 
 Gloria Steinem - who candidly describe experiences spanning seven decades, 
 from the years before Roe v. Wade to the present day. Filmmakers Jennifer 
 Baumgardner (author of Manifesta: Young Women, Feminism, and the Future) 
 and Gillian Aldrich insightfully document how changing societal pressures 
 have affected women's choices and experiences.\nCutting across age, race, 
 class and religion, the film unfolds personal narratives with intimate 
 interviews, archival footage, family photos and home movies. Arranged 
 chronologically, the stories begin with Florence Rice, now 86, telling 
 without regret about her abortion in the 1930s. Other women speaking out 
 include Marion Banzhaf, who, inspired by both the Miss America protests and 
 the Stonewall rebellion, fundraised on her campus to pay for her abortion, 
 and Robin Ringleka-Kottke, who found herself pregnant as an 18-year-old 
 pro-life Catholic.\n
