PLEASE COME SEE THE SCREENING OF SPEAK OUT: I HAD AN ABORTION

Please come to my screening next Monday. Speak Out: I Had an Abortion Monday, March 14 6:00 pm FILM SCREENING/PHOTO EXHIBITION/DISCUSSION Gillian Aldrich, Jennifer Baumgardner, Katha Pollitt & Tara Todras-Whitehill. Moderated by Liza Featherstone Media coverage of abortion always focuses on the firestorm of passionate beliefs and politics launched by both sides of the debate. Missing are the voices of the women who have had abortions and there are millions of them. This controversial and powerful documentary by Gillian Aldrich, a field producer for Bowling for Columbine, and Jennifer Baumgardner, co-author of Grassroots and Manifesta, as well as founder of the I Had an Abortion project, features women telling their abortion stories. A photo exhibition by Tara Todras-Whitehill and featuring the women in the film accompanies the screening. All three artists will discuss the project and what it might mean to the future of abortion rights if women speak out once again. "I had an Abortion" t-shirts -- which have sparked a lively, nationwide debate even within the pro-choice movement -- will be on sale at the event.
