Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of abortion decriminalization and critical advocacy efforts to improve access in Canada deserve to be better known. Ordinary people persevered to make Canada the most progressive country in the world with respect to abortion care. But while abortion access is poorly understood, so too are the persistent threats to reproductive justice in this country: sexual violence, gun violence, homophobia and transphobia, criminalization of sex work, reproductive oppression of Indigenous women and girls, privatization of fertility health services, and the racism and colonialism of policing and the prison system. This beautifully illustrated book tells the empowering true stories behind the struggles for reproductive justice in Canada, celebrating past wins and revealing how prison abolitionism is key to the path forward.
Download or read book The New Civil Rights Movement written by Tony Foster and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My purpose for writing this book is to educate people about the history and the dangers of abortion. To also awaken the church to its responsibility to defend the helpless, which are our per-born babies in the womb. The church can no longer be a voiceless church which does not stand up and advocate for our babies in the womb. Abortion has never been a political issue, it is a life issue. My ultimate objective is to expose the deceit and the lies of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger. Margaret Sanger plotted and planned a genocide of a particular group, black people in the United States. Even though abortion has hurt every ethnic group in the United States and abroad, it has disproportionately murdered more black babies in the womb than any other race of people in the United States. And lastly, this book is about hope for the future. I firmly believe, by the grace of God, just like slavery came to an end in the United States, there can be an end to abortion in the United States of America and the world. I believe that abortion is the civil rights issue of our day, and what is needed now is a New Civil Rights Movement, the abolition and ending of abortion.
Download or read book Abolishing Abortion written by Frank Pavone and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggle against abortion in our nation has been going on a long time. Sometimes it seems like an evil that will never go away. People want to get involved in the fight, but it feels futile, and increasingly the culture tells Christians to stay out of politics. Longtime activist Rev. Frank Pavone counters this frustrated mindset with challenge, encouragement, plain facts, and a healthy dose of strategy. He explores biblical, moral, historical, and legal reasons Christians belong in the public square and challenges both churches and individual Christians to full engagement. Pavone argues convincingly that the battle against abortion not only can be won, but must be won. The soul of our nation depends on it.
Download or read book Abolition written by Mark Olson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nation's economy cannot be sustained when nearly one-third of its population has been wiped out. This is basic macroeconomics. This is what we have done through abortion in America. In the 1980's, President Reagan outlined a workable plan for legally abolishing abortion; this plan has yet to be followed. In a call to vision rather than reaction, ABOLITION charts a new course for the church in America to, as Charles Finney stated, "take right ground [in Politics]," informed by God's heart instead of leaning on the partisan understandings of mere men.
Download or read book Abortion written by Sandra Sweeny Silver and published by . This book was released on 2002-04 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1851 the Abolition of Slavery Movement was in full swing. The Underground Railroad which helped slaves escape to freedom in the North and Canada was operational in the Midwest and the Northeast. Escaped slaves were featured speakers on the lecture circuits. John Brown and his band of Abolitionists were causing trouble. Everywhere in the North and the South people were riled up about Slavery. Now in the beginning of the 21st century there is another war waging which could tear America apart as surely as Slavery did. It is the Fight To Save The Unborn. Since Roe versus Wade legalized the killing of babies in the womb in 1973, as many as 50,000,000 babies have been aborted just in America. Because they are hidden deep within the wombs of our women, their tortures and screams are not as evident as the anguish of the slaves. This Holocaust Against The Babies must be stopped. Ms. Silver's book gives Biblical information and ammunition to Christian people, to Bible-believing Jews and to all moral and sane people who wish to know and to act upon what the Bible teaches about abortion. This Civil War may not be averted. But decent people must stand in the breach.

It is not just abstract theory but rather a phenomenal practical comprehensive applied handbook and reference guide for the battle to end abortion. Rusty gives an incredibly detailed history and present backdrop of abortion, clear direct vision, and detailed short- and long-term strategy going forward on how to explicitly, biblically, effectively, abolish abortion and why we should do so from God’s perspective and not men. This book bleeds from a very faithful man of God of great depth of wisdom and character, distilled from many years of deep trials, tribulations, tears, heartbreak, experience, study, and deep personal sacrifice in the battle to abolish abortion. He addresses how God sees the situation, what He expects of us, the church, and how to engage. He details out the surprising enemies of abolition. He addresses questions, objections, in almost every conceivable way and in relation to all arenas. Rusty does a masterful job of weaving the tapestry, and I know of absolutely no one more qualified to speak on the subject! John Jacob Indiana State Representative
Download or read book Prospective Abolition of Abortion written by Michael Stokes Paulsen and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if those who fashioned the Missouri Compromise of 1820, instead of drawing a geographical line in the sand, had drawn a 'time'-line instead, prohibiting slavery at a then-seemingly-distant date of 1860, forty long years into the future? Might the events of 1860 (and thereafter) played out much differently? Is it possible slavery would have been abolished sooner, and without the loss of 600,000 lives in the Civil War? This short essay asks the question of whether abortion might be prohibited by constitutional amendment, effective some forty years in the future. Might it be possible to reach consensus that an absolute, unrestricted right to abortion should not exist forever?

Download or read book The Abolition of Woman written by Fiorella Nash and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the great majority on both sides of the abortion debate, the idea of a pro-life feminist is the ultimate contradiction in terms. Abortion has become so central to feminist thinking that women who affirm their belief in both women's empowerment and the inalienable right to life can find themselves viewed with suspicion and hostility from both sides. Yet the author of this book is indeed a pro-life feminist, and her insightful analysis of contemporary issues can provide the basis for common ground between those defending human rights. This book unashamedly calls mainstream feminists, journalists and Western politicians to account for their silence and – in some cases – vocal justification of the persecution of women because of an absolutist loyalty to abortion. It asks uncomfortable questions to those who claim to believe in women's empowerment: Where is their passionate outrage when Chinese women are forcibly aborted and sterilised? Where is their concern for the thousands of baby girls killed by abortion every year because their lives are held as worthless simply for being female? What about the thousands of women used as surrogates for wealthy Western couples, treated as chattels and denied their most basic human rights? But the book also tackles difficult issues for the pro-life side—the need for a sensitive, realistic approach to problematic pregnancies and the importance of confronting the continued exploitation and abuse of women within a sexualised society. Pro-life feminism is not only possible; it is vital if the complex struggles facing women are to be adequately met. The Abolition of Woman is a rallying cry to feminists to stand with the pro-life movement, fighting to build a society in which women are equal and every human life is protected.
Download or read book The Slave s Cause written by Manisha Sinha and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-23 with total page 809 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Traces the history of abolition from the 1600s to the 1860s . . . a valuable addition to our understanding of the role of race and racism in America.”—Florida Courier Received historical wisdom casts abolitionists as bourgeois, mostly white reformers burdened by racial paternalism and economic conservatism. Manisha Sinha overturns this image, broadening her scope beyond the antebellum period usually associated with abolitionism and recasting it as a radical social movement in which men and women, black and white, free and enslaved found common ground in causes ranging from feminism and utopian socialism to anti-imperialism and efforts to defend the rights of labor. Drawing on extensive archival research, including newly discovered letters and pamphlets, Sinha documents the influence of the Haitian Revolution and the centrality of slave resistance in shaping the ideology and tactics of abolition. This book is a comprehensive history of the abolition movement in a transnational context. It illustrates how the abolitionist vision ultimately linked the slave’s cause to the struggle to redefine American democracy and human rights across the globe. “A full history of the men and women who truly made us free.”—Ira Berlin, The New York Times Book Review “A stunning new history of abolitionism . . . [Sinha] plugs abolitionism back into the history of anticapitalist protest.”—The Atlantic “Will deservedly take its place alongside the equally magisterial works of Ira Berlin on slavery and Eric Foner on the Reconstruction Era.”—The Wall Street Journal “A powerfully unfamiliar look at the struggle to end slavery in the United States . . . as multifaceted as the movement it chronicles.”—The Boston Globe

Download or read book Beating Hearts written by Sherry F. Colb and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can someone who condemns hunting, animal farming, and animal experimentation also favor legal abortion, which is the deliberate destruction of a human fetus? The authors of Beating Hearts aim to reconcile this apparent conflict and examine the surprisingly similar strategic and tactical questions faced by activists in the pro-life and animal rights movements. Beating Hearts maintains that sentience, or the ability to have subjective experiences, grounds a being's entitlement to moral concern. The authors argue that nearly all human exploitation of animals is unjustified. Early abortions do not contradict the sentience principle because they precede fetal sentience, and Beating Hearts explains why the mere potential for sentience does not create moral entitlements. Late abortions do raise serious moral questions, but forcing a woman to carry a child to term is problematic as a form of gender-based exploitation. These ethical explorations lead to a wider discussion of the strategies deployed by the pro-life and animal rights movements. Should legal reforms precede or follow attitudinal changes? Do gory images win over or alienate supporters? Is violence ever principled? By probing the connections between debates about abortion and animal rights, Beating Hearts uses each highly contested set of questions to shed light on the other.
