Photos of March for Life Reveal the Face of the Pro-Life Movement

Posted on January 26, 2014 in Life, Public Policy by

Maybe you missed the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. last week. It certainly did not gain a lot of media attention as they continue their complicit partnership with the abortion industry. But hundreds of thousands of people braved cold temperatures to march in the nation’s capitol showing their support for life.

The photos below show one striking feature about the force behind the pro-life movement. While the media tries to claim it is old men seeking to “oppress women,” these photos reveal an enormous number of young people, and women. In other words, those driving the pro-life movement are young people and women that have been impacted by abortion in some way.

Doug Mainwaring recently wrote the following statement about this year’s March for Life, and shared the photos you will see below:

“It’s no wonder the legacy media does the best it can to ignore the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C.  They would like to preserve the perception they’ve cultivated over the years of “right to lifers” as a bunch of crotchety, backwards, sexually uptight old folks. Images of the January 22, 2014 March for Life present a completely different picture, demolishing the pro-abortion media’s false narrative about who today’s pro-life activists really are. This year’s March was dominated by young people — overwhelmingly so! With more than 60% of Americans now asserting that abortion is morally wrong, perhaps the  tide of adult selfishness, resulting in 55 million child lives aborted, is turning.  Maybe with this rising generation, we’ll discover that unconditional love for children isn’t dead after all.”

There were also groups and individuals marching that the legacy media would prefer to pretend don’t exist, because their presence challenges current conventional wisdom:

These photos are visual evidence that the pro-life movement is not just a bunch of cranky old people waging a war on women. The pro-life movement is composed of people from many generations that have been impacted by abortion, or simply understand that no greater right exists than the right to life. These are aspects of the pro-life movement the media seeks to keep hidden from view in order to continue their rhetoric. But the truth is that thanks to experience and science, more Americans now self-identify as pro-life than ever before. Laws are being passed on the state level at historic rates. Abortion clinics are closing. And except for the most pro-abortion president in American history there is a good chance Planned Parenthood would be de-funded of tax dollars and Roe v. Wade would be overturned.

We will continue to defend life until every unborn child in America is given the chance to be born and experience the liberty and freedoms of our land.
