This fall, I hit the road with my Students for Life of America “Make Gen Z Anti-Abortion” tour, visiting five universities and sparking some of the biggest, loudest, and most inspiring conversations of my life. I debated ANTIFA, a pro-abortion wizard, and many other interesting protestors. My goal was simple: Expose the lies of the abortion industry and show my generation that loving Life isn’t radical — it’s logical. What happened next proved just how desperate the abortion lobby is to silence truth.

University of Cincinnati: So Crowded They Had to Move Us

The first stop set the tone. At the University of Cincinnati, so many students showed up to my table that the university had to move us because the crowd completely shut down the main walkway. Hundreds of students stopped to debate, listen, or film the conversations on their phones. My speech that night packed the room with students there to hear the truth. Even surrounded by skeptics, I watched minds change in real time. Turns out, when you speak truth boldly, people can’t help but stop and listen.

University of Kentucky: From Tears to Transformation

At my University of Kentucky speech, several audience members shared emotional stories about adopting children who were almost aborted, or about being adopted themselves. Afterward, a young woman came up to me in tears. She told me she had an abortion years ago, had been in pain from it, and that after hearing the truth that night, she was ready to call herself pro-life. I connected her with post-abortion healing resources and prayed for her. That’s what this movement is about: ending abortion and supporting the mothers impacted by it.

University of Tennessee: Life, Laughter, and a Pie to the Face

Next was the University of Tennessee, where both the tabling and the speech had a huge turnout. While on campus, I supported a fraternity fundraiser — and pied a guy in the face — to raise money for born children in need. It was the perfect reminder that the pro-life movement doesn’t just talk about loving Life. We live it and back it up with action (which sometimes includes pie).

Tennessee Tech: Debating a Wizard in 48 Degrees

At Tennessee Tech, it was 48 degrees outside and rainy, but students still crowded around the table to debate. One of them was literally dressed as a wizard — wand, robe, and all — and yes, I debated him too. That night’s speech was powerful. One of our incredible supporters at Students for Life, Allen, joined me and shared his testimony about paying for an abortion years ago and how God changed his heart. His story broke through walls that arguments alone never could.

University of Mary Washington: The “Anti-Fascist” Fascists

My final stop, University of Mary Washington, was pure irony. Abortion supporters, some identifying as ANTIFA, vandalized our event promotion rock twice in 24 hours — both times breaking school policy — then showed up to my morning tabling event calling me a “fascist” while threatening me and saying they hoped I’d “end up like Charlie Kirk.” Nothing screams “tolerance” like vandalism and death wishes. One man called me “a pretty little talking mouthpiece for the conservative movement,” proving just how sexist the “pro-woman” side can be.

Even with all that chaos, the tabling was massive. And that night, over 300 people showed up to the event … mostly protesters. The room was overflowing, with more people waiting outside trying to get in. For three straight hours I was screamed at, cursed at, and degraded. But even through the noise, truth won. After the event, as security escorted me out, a young man stopped me to shake my hand. He said he’d come in unsure what he believed about abortion but was leaving pro-life. That one moment made every insult, every threat, and every protest worth it.

The Truth Always Wins

Across five campuses, I saw what happens when light meets darkness. The pro-abortion side may have loud voices, but the pro-life movement has the stronger message — one built on love, science, and truth.

This tour proved that Gen Z isn’t too far gone. They’re hungry for something real. They’re ready to fight for Life. The messages are still pouring in my Instagram and Tik Tok DMs of young people who became pro-life or were inspired by my speeches this semester.

I’ll be back on tour this spring, ready to make even more noise and keep making Gen Z anti-abortion, one campus, one conversation, and one changed heart at a time.
