GQ: The Anti-Abortion Movement Was Always Built on Lies
This week, it was revealed that Norma McCorvey, a.k.a. “Jane Roe,” admitted on her death bed that her late-career anti-abortion crusade was all a ruse funded by the Christian right. Laura Bassett takes a hard look at the house of cards the American anti-abortion movement was built upon.
A great read by Laura Bassett for GQ.
Did you know Republicans decided to start caring about abortion in the late 70s because they were looking for a more defensible moral wedge issue than "keep schools white" to mobilize white evangelical voters?
