Requiem for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Dream
Mattison Brooks | August 29, 2023
More than 60 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. shook America to its foundations on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. He famously and passionately intoned: “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by
So You Want to Eliminate Racism? Great — Let’s Start With Abortion.
Caroline Wharton | January 10, 2023
Students for Life of America (SFLA) has always stood strong in our belief that every life matters — regardless of sex, age, circumstance of conception, mental/physical capacities, or race. Our commitment to equal rights for everyone is why we have championed efforts against Planned Parenthood’s targeting of minorities and held firm to the fact that Black Preborn Lives Matter, as
This Is How Someone The Abortion Lobby “Protects” Was Treated At A Bans Off Our Bodies Rally
Caroline Wharton | May 16, 2022
GUEST POST: This past weekend, as I led a counter protest to a Bans Off Our Bodies rally in St. Paul, Minnesota, I was a firsthand witness to the hostility and hatred of the abortion lobby. Despite checking off all of the boxes which they claim to protect—minority, female, sexual assault survivor—I was dehumanized and treated like “trash” merely because
The Connecticut Representative Who Isn’t Letting Her Party Tell Her How to Vote About Abortion
Caroline Wharton | April 22, 2022
In a country often split down the middle by partisan issues, a new voice for the pro-life movement has emerged and shown that the issue of abortion need not be either red nor blue—but this political figure is speaking out against how this human rights injustice disproportionately affects the Black community. Before the Connecticut House of Representatives passed a pro-abortion
SHOCKING: Pro-Life Investigator Says Babies are Born, Then Dissected Alive by Researchers
Brenna Lewis | August 6, 2021
In May, Students for Life and other pro-life allies rallied at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) to demand action on the university’s inhumane research on aborted children. The university’s activities were recently exposed in a video and testimony by David Daleiden of the Center for Medical Progress. Read more about Daleiden’s testimony HERE. Now, Daleiden has released even MORE disturbing allegations about the University of Pittsburgh’s
Did We Just Agree with an Abortion Activist?
Brenna Lewis | March 12, 2021
Mary Ziegler is a law professor at Florida State University College of Law and serves as the “intellectual thought leader” on abortion law and policy (on the pro-abortion side). In light of Arkansas’s recent near-total abortion ban, Ziegler penned an op ed that ran on CNN this week and contains many themes that will likely be echoed by other abortion
Vice Thinks We’re Racist for Saying “Black Preborn Lives Matter”
Brenna Lewis | September 18, 2020
This week, Vice took notice of pro-life efforts (Students for Life in particular) to draw attention to the racial implications of abortion given our country’s current climate. The critique is truly delicious. In essence, the thesis is that we are racist for promoting our “Black Preborn Lives Matter” campaign. From the word go, Vice doesn’t like us. That’s definitely
Margaret Sanger’s Very Racist Buddy: Lothrop Stoddard
Brenna Lewis | September 18, 2020
Somehow, there are still some abortion supporters and Planned Parenthood spokespeople who insist that Planned Parenthood’s founder, Margaret Sanger, wasn’t a racist eugenicist who wanted to exterminate “inferior races.” This is, of course, despite her extensive writing on the subject and speeches at KKK rallies. But she’s not the only villain in Planned Parenthood’s history of racist tyranny. If it takes
Margaret Sanger is Being Whitewashed in High School History Books
Jessica Nardi | September 8, 2020
You’d think the foundations of the birth control movement would be explored in history classes when studying its impact on the sexual revolution. At a surface level, teachers may chalk it up to sexual decadence–they might even celebrate it as “sexual liberation”–but the history of the organized eugenics movement driving the nation’s largest abortion machine remains buried. A recent
If the Country Wants to Stop Celebrating Racist Figures, It’s Time to Strike Out Sanger
Brenna Lewis | July 21, 2020
Margaret Sanger pioneered the birth control movement and founded Planned Parenthood. There are dedications to her throughout the United States (and even on the planet Venus). She is highlighted as a feminist, humanist, and “hero” for human equality. Here are the top two (publicly-funded) places she is commemorated: Her bust is on display in the “Struggle for Justice” exhibit at the Smithsonian Museum.
