October 18, 2017/0 Comments/in Ableism /by Guest Blogger

A gym teacher of mine once promised to “separate the men from the boys.” While I’m sure that would provoke a lawsuit today, the abortion industry is still separating the girls… …from their arms, legs, and torsos. By 16 weeks, a child’s sex is usually visible on an ultrasound, and for too many girls, that’s […]

Happy World Down Syndrome Day!

March 21, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

March 21 (3/21) is World Down Syndrome Day—because Down Syndrome (or as Steven of Born This Way likes to call it, Up Syndrome) is caused by a third copy of the 21st chromosome. Clever, eh? Today, we celebrate the lives of people with Down Syndrome and their special accomplishments. We advocate for their human rights […]

Late term abortion and pro-choice ableism

February 6, 2017/0 Comments/in Ableism, Later Abortion /by Monica Snyder

In the UK, abortion is legal up to 24 weeks typically—but in cases where the fetus has disabilities, the woman can obtain abortion at any time throughout pregnancy.

Ableism, False Compassion, and Abortion

October 7, 2016/0 Comments/in Ableism /by Guest Blogger

The author at the March for Life [Today’s guest post is by Rebecca Stapleford.] A common trope of the pseudo-progressive idealization of late term abortion performed on disabled fetuses is this notion that it is a loving choice, the best choice for the child, who would assuredly be born into unimaginable suffering otherwise. Writer Miranda […]
