Discrimination Towards a Students for Life Group… At a Catholic University!
Brenna Lewis | November 6, 2020
The University of Dayton is a Catholic school in the Marian tradition (the Society of Mary) located in Dayton, Ohio. As such, one would think the campus Students for Life group would be safe from the same sorts of discrimination and harassment students face at public schools. Sadly… no. The first week of November, the group, Flyers for Life,
Minnesota Students (Again) Harassed for Pro-Life Message
Brenna Lewis | November 6, 2020
October means National Chalk Day—which actually takes place over several days—where students get to show off their creativity when it comes to communicating the pro-life message. With more reports of students participating, however, comes more incidents of vandalism, similar to other incidents we’ve recently seen.

Vandals with Zero Creativity Mess with Chalk in Louisiana
Brenna Lewis | November 2, 2020
While student members of the Pro-Life Cajuns group at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette encourage voters with life-affirming chalk messages, they’re met with suppression and vandalism. Such is yet another attempt to silence pro-life students who want to use their voices to speak out in favor of the preborn, while also informing their peers about the issue. As the election quickly approaches, there are

Brenna Lewis | November 2, 2020

What’s an Intolerant Pro-Choice Student’s Weapon of Choice? Cups of Water.
Brenna Lewis | October 29, 2020
Life-affirming sidewalk chalking is a popular and powerful method to communicate the pro-life message. Yet it is sadly it’s become common for such messages to be wiped away by abortion supporters, even if it means silencing those whom they disagree with. These vandals used to be cowards in the night, erasing messages then disappearing. Nowadays, that isn’t always the case.
‘Unplanned’ Movie Shocks Student about the Reality of Abortion
Brenna Lewis | October 28, 2020
The 2019 film ‘Unplanned’ which is about the intense conversion of Abby Johnson from Planned Parenthood director to pro-life activist has changed many minds about abortion. This is, in no small way, because the movie contains scenes of both chemical and surgical abortion – something many people know very little about. This was the case for a student on the
