Writer: Mallory FinchMallory Finch

Listen HERE


Summary:

For this episode, I have my friend Brittany on to discuss the abolitionist movement. This is a great episode where I learn a lot and I hope you learn a lot too. This will hopefully be a chance for you to hear from someone with a perspective in the prolife movement we don’t hear often. We discuss the complexities of abolitionism in relation to the pro-life movement. We discuss the abolitionist movement, its differences from the pro-life movement, and the importance of faith in advocating for the end of abortion. We explore the challenges faced by abolitionists in gaining traction within the pro-life community, the significance of language in advocacy, and the role of legislation in the fight against abortion. The conversation emphasizes the need for courage in advocacy and the importance of community support in the movement. This is just part 1 of the conservation. Stay tuned for part two.
