We need a new revolution…against abortion
The American revolutionaries dared to take on the most powerful empire and military in the world, and established a new country where we would be free of King George’s tyranny, taxation, and oppression. Men and women, White and Black sacrificed for what would become the United States of America.
In order to “form a more perfect union,” they wrote a Constitution that was inspired by the best ideas of democracy, including drawing from the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy that was already present on this land.
Our forefathers embraced the rights of all free White men but did not recognize those enslaved, indigenous people of the First Nations, or women. Slave owners and future Presidents Thomas Jefferson and George Washington knew it was wrong. Washington freed his slaves after his death, while Jefferson freed men related to his enslaved sister-in-law, Sally Hemmings, including their two sons. Six hundred others were sold to pay his debt.
Incrementally, America would build on the foundation of our democracy by expanding rights to Black men, and later women, who would achieve suffrage in our Bill of Rights. These women, who fought for the rights of slaves to be free and women to vote, also fought peacefully for our right to life.
But then something happened. Abortion advocates ingratiated themselves in the 70’s Women’s Movement.
The “gross perversion” of abortion betrayed our rich pro-life suffrage roots. The 70’s Women’s Movement was stained with the cancer of aborting our own children.
And for what? Millions dead, including women and teen girls who were the poorest among us.
The first casualties of war are often children. At the start of the the American Revolution, a Liberty Boy was shot dead. History had repeated itself as the 70’s Women’s Movement chose death for any unborn for any reason or none, denying their basic rights and humanity.
Roe Attorney Sarah Weddington said abortion was necessary to achieve women’s equality in the workplace. Half a century later, abortion advocates often speak of inclusivity, but still make “exceptions” for defenseless unborn little ones.
Second-wave feminists have treated children as chattel. They sadly replaced a patriarchy with a twisted matriarchy, as if a women’s maternity, children, are the enemy. Feminists for Life’s past President Rosemary Bottcher called it “Animal Farm feminism.”
When abortion defenders deny the most basic rights of the children women carry because of their size, age, location, parentage, or disability, it is reminiscent of those who reasoned women weren’t fully persons because they weren’t as big as men.
They betrayed the most desperate, the most vulnerable, the weakest women and children. We can only wonder how much further we’d be if all the energy to destroy the unborn had been used to address the challenges women face, and how much better our world would be if they had a chance to be cuddled, loved, nourished, and grow up and contribute to this world.
Just as abolitionists used the Constitution as one of many tools for freedom and rights of Black men, true believers in the rights of all people will stomp out the stain of abortion, the original sin of the 70s women’s movement—for moral contradictions ultimately cannot endure.
Our mission is to systematically eliminate the reasons that millions of women have been driven to swallow bitter pills or perform surgery on healthy bodies.
We are here to free women and children from abortion through resources and support.
This nightmare will not likely end until women stand up for themselves to say no more poison pills or sharp instruments. It is abortion that is sick. Love, sacrifice, and support are the remedies.
Coming is a day when we all say women deserve better than abortion and peace begins in the womb. Then we will all be truly free.
Because women deserve better,
Serrin M. Foster
President
