  • RESEARCH PAPER “THE LAST ABORTION CLINIC” by Raney
    RESEARCH PAPER “THE LAST ABORTION CLINIC” By Raney Aronson Please note this is for internal use only – not to be published, as it has not been thoroughly fact checked. This information has been culled from original reporting done during research, newspaper articles/periodicals, and past interviews I conducted for “The Jesus Factor,” which we will undoubtedly choose to update for this film. Additionally, for purposes of this research paper, I have adopted the following terminology: pro life/ opponents of abortion or pro choice. There are many other terms used, and while pro life and pro choice are also politically motivated titles, they seem to be the best choices for now – later in the process, we should discuss what we want to use for the broadcast. The purpose of “The Last Abortion Clinic” is to explore abortion politics today by looking at both the national and the state level. National On a national level, the film will focus on the pro-life movement’s strategy to redefine when “life” and/or “personhood” begins with the eventual goal of undermining the ever-controversial 1973 Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade. William Saletan, the author of “Bearing Right: How Conservatives Won the Abortion War” told us, “what is key to understanding what’s different about abortion politics today is that the Conservative movement has successfully shifted the debate from a woman’s right to choose to the right of the fetus – in other words her ‘unborn child’s’ rights.” This means, in essence, he explains, “now there is a competition between the woman or her ‘unborn child’ in terms of rights – and if a fetus is ultimately defined as a person then abortion rights will most certainly be up for grabs.” Richard Land, in a 2004 interview, said, “we are trying to change the hearts and minds of Americans by talking about the unborn child as a person who deserves the same rights as all Americans, and by doing this we will capture the American spirit.” States With eight of nine U.S.
