but we also navigated many difficult conversations. Many students we talked to who initially thought they were pro-choice, after seeing the brutality of the D&E abortion procedure, were absolutely disgusted, and it completely changed their perspective on the issue of abortion.
To make the day even more interesting, there was a moment when a group of students from other countries who, after finding out abortion was legal in the United States, especially after 20 weeks, were completely horrified! They called over their friends all the way down the hallway to come sign our petition. Lastly, we a had great discussion with a moral relativist who lived his life by a utilitarian value system, and we were able to explain our side and have a rational discussion with civility and tact. By the end, our new guest appreciated our conversation, noting how we had given him many things to think about!

During the #TheyFeelPain tour stop at the University of Missouri, I spoke to 3 young, black women and informed them of how a fetus feels pain at 20 weeks. We had a 10-minute conversation about the abortion procedures used and how abortion has oppressed the black community. Turns out that none of them had ever heard what an abortion actually was and were shocked and disgusted that this was even legal. One of the young women told me how her cousin’s boyfriend’s mother was attempting to pressure her cousin to have an abortion. She asked if she could take a picture of the display, specifically of the abortion instruments and fetal models and send them to her cousin. I quickly told her, “Yes!” and she sent a picture to her cousin with a caption explaining that abortion is violently ending a life and that she shouldn’t go through with it.
