Winner of 13 Film Festival Awards & Emmy Award

Abortion remains legal in the United States, but anti-abortion efforts have succeeded in making it virtually inaccessible in some places, and in the Deep South, often unthinkable. At one time Mississippi had fourteen abortion clinics. Now only one remains. Set against the backdrop of the fight to close the last abortion clinic in Mississippi, Jackson captures the essential and hard truth of the lives at the center of the debate over reproductive healthcare in America.

Since the passage of Roe v. Wade more than four decades ago, the self-labeled “pro-life” movement has won significant cultural, political and legal battles. Now, the stigma of abortion is prolific in Mississippi and women in poverty and women of color are particularly vulnerable. Jackson is wrought with the racial and religious undertones of the Deep South and explores the nuanced nature of abortion in America’s Bible Belt. Shannon Brewer is the director of Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the only remaining abortion clinic in the state. Barbara Beaver runs the Center for Pregnancy Choices and is a leader of the anti-abortion movement in Mississippi. April Jackson is a young mother of four children faced with another unplanned pregnancy. Jackson is an intimate, unprecedented look at the lives of three women caught up in the complex issues surrounding abortion access.

"An alarming documentary on a perennial hot-button issue, this is recommended." - Video Librarian

“Easily one of the year's strongest documentaries...” - Criterion Cast

"Following three very different women positioned at the ideological crossroads of Mississippi’s last remaining abortion clinic, Maisie Crow’s film represents a strong and scrupulously even-handed addition to the annals of documentaries on this most divisive of subjects, including “12th & Delaware,” “After Tiller” and the recent “Trapped.” - Los Angeles Times

“In its focus on that final surviving Mississippi abortion clinic, Maisie Crow's elegant, unsettling Jackson finds issues of class, race, religion, executive power, and women's rights to be tightly interwoven." - The Village Voice

“A grim warning of what restrictive abortion legislation across the U.S. actually looks like.” - The Huffington Post 

“Jackson allows all sides in the abortion issue to have their say to illuminate the issue's truths and lies. The results are sometimes engrossing, sometimes anger-inducing.” - Beyond Chron  

“Crow deftly allows the story to unfold in the words, deeds, and realities of those involved without pushing too hard in one direction. In the end, the viewer is left to draw their own conclusions and work out their own feelings about whether the film chronicles the tale of a victory or a defeat.” - The Lancet Medical Journal

"This well-crafted film adds to our understanding by humanizing some of the opponents.” - The Hollywood Reporter

“Jackson is not only one of the best documentaries to premiere at this year’s L.A. Film Festival, it’s sure to be one of the best of the year, period.” - Patheos

"It seems every festival year we get an "important" work of art, something that cuts through the rhetoric, and Jackson shows all signs of being very important." - LA Weekly

00:00:21.751 --> 00:00:25.393
- Do not remove the
ancient landmark

Oh another day, another day.

00:01:05.250 --> 00:01:07.751
A little child is
out there screaming.

00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:11.975
That is unreal.

00:01:11.999 --> 00:01:13.393
They have children saying
that you're a murderer.

00:01:13.417 --> 00:01:16.975 position:20%
They got a violin player.

00:01:16.999 --> 00:01:18.999
So here we go again, another
day, another day with them.

00:01:22.876 --> 00:01:23.999 line:20%
- If you're pregnant please
take and read this information.

00:01:26.999 --> 00:01:30.959 line:20%
Mommy, Mommy please
don't kill me Mommy.

00:01:31.042 --> 00:01:34.834 position:20% line:20%
Mommy I have a dream Mommy.

00:01:35.999 --> 00:01:36.999 line:20%
- Why would I do that,
this way too easy Roy.

00:01:39.999 --> 00:01:41.268 line:20%
- [Child] Stop
killing your baby!

00:01:41.292 --> 00:01:43.351 line:20%
In the end there
will be judgment!

00:01:43.375 --> 00:01:46.167
- [Shannon] Baby I'm
not, I'm not pregnant.

00:01:46.999 --> 00:01:48.852
I'm not pregnant baby.

00:01:48.876 --> 00:01:50.975
- [Child] Please
don't kill your baby!

00:01:50.999 --> 00:01:53.810 line:20%

They got these little
bitty children saying this.- First thing we
want people to know,

00:02:04.751 --> 00:02:06.435 line:20%
it's bad for the women.

00:02:06.459 --> 00:02:08.018 line:20%
And then secondly,
and very importantly,

00:02:08.042 --> 00:02:11.685 line:20%
there are free centers that are

00:02:11.709 --> 00:02:14.975 line:20%
called Crisis Pregnancy Centers.

00:02:14.999 --> 00:02:17.310
We help them, stay with
them, we assign people

00:02:17.334 --> 00:02:19.268 line:20%
to them like a mentor.

00:02:19.292 --> 00:02:21.751 line:20%
Ma'am do the right thing please.

00:02:22.999 --> 00:02:24.334 position:20%
Please do the right thing.

00:02:26.500 --> 00:02:28.792
You talk to them while I
go talk to these people.

00:02:29.542 --> 00:02:31.685 line:20%
If you're about 10 weeks this is

00:02:31.709 --> 00:02:33.560 line:20%
the size of your little baby.

00:02:33.584 --> 00:02:36.667 line:20%
So y'all, y'all are pregnant
and decided not to abort right?

00:02:41.542 --> 00:02:44.999
(contemplative music)

00:03:03.709 --> 00:03:07.143
- [Dr. Parker] Good morning.

00:03:07.167 --> 00:03:08.018
- [Patient Group]
Hi, how are you?

00:03:08.042 --> 00:03:08.975
- I'm Dr. Parker.

00:03:08.999 --> 00:03:10.351
I'm one of the doctors who
work here at the clinic.

00:03:10.375 --> 00:03:12.268 position:20%
The state requires us to do
some very specific things.

00:03:12.292 --> 00:03:14.975
But I think some
of the information

00:03:14.999 --> 00:03:16.059
I'm required to
tell you is designed

00:03:16.083 --> 00:03:17.852
to kind of discourage from
deciding to have an abortion.

00:03:17.876 --> 00:03:20.975
First of all the state
requires me to tell you

00:03:20.999 --> 00:03:23.435
that there's a risk of bleeding,

00:03:23.459 --> 00:03:25.393
there's a risk of infection,

00:03:25.417 --> 00:03:26.518
there's a risk of damage
to any of your organs.

00:03:26.542 --> 00:03:28.975
Now guess what all of
those complications

00:03:28.999 --> 00:03:31.602
are also associated
with having childbirth.

00:03:31.626 --> 00:03:33.975
The thing that I
have the most problem

00:03:33.999 --> 00:03:35.143
with having to tell you but
I'm required to tell you

00:03:35.167 --> 00:03:36.975
is that by having
an abortion it might

00:03:36.999 --> 00:03:38.768
increase your risk
for breast cancer.

00:03:38.792 --> 00:03:40.975
There's no scientific
evidence that abortion

00:03:40.999 --> 00:03:42.685
increases your risk
for breast cancer.

00:03:42.709 --> 00:03:44.435
I can't say enough
this is your decision.

00:03:44.459 --> 00:03:46.393
This is not anything you
have to be ashamed of.

00:03:46.417 --> 00:03:48.393
Disregard those
people out there.

00:03:48.417 --> 00:03:50.768
They know nothing
about your life.

00:03:50.792 --> 00:03:51.999
They know nothing about you.

00:03:52.999 --> 00:03:56.226
This is healthcare and
we're here to make sure thatyou can have safe, legal
access to abortion.

00:03:56.250 --> 00:03:59.999
And that's your choice and
that's your right to do that.

00:04:07.042 --> 00:04:10.975
- Yeah the police
jus told them that

00:04:10.999 --> 00:04:12.059
they had to get those signs off,

00:04:12.083 --> 00:04:13.476
because they gonna
tell me they don't have

00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:14.975
to move the signs,
something about a line.

00:04:14.999 --> 00:04:16.894
What does the ground have
to do with our fence?

00:04:16.918 --> 00:04:19.459 line:20%
This is our fence, you
cannot prop it on our fence.

00:04:21.542 --> 00:04:23.667
- [Ms. Esther] Pride
goes before destruction,

00:04:25.375 --> 00:04:26.459
and a haughty spirit
before a fall.

00:04:30.626 --> 00:04:34.560 position:20%
- Nope, nope, the police
just told them Ms. Esther

00:04:34.584 --> 00:04:36.975
that they cannot, they have to

00:04:36.999 --> 00:04:38.476
take everyone of
these signs down.

00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:39.727
- [Ms. Esther] No it's
on public property.

00:04:39.751 --> 00:04:40.894
- [Shannon] No it's not.

00:04:40.918 --> 00:04:41.685
- [Ms. Esther] I know that the--

00:04:41.709 --> 00:04:42.476
- Let me ask, why was nothing

00:04:42.500 --> 00:04:43.268
said when the police were here?

00:04:43.292 --> 00:04:45.042
- [Ms. Esther] We
had a few more.

00:04:45.999 --> 00:04:47.975
- No no, the police made
them move every one of them.

00:04:47.999 --> 00:04:49.975
They moved every sign I
was standing right out-- - No.
- Yes they did.

00:04:49.999 --> 00:04:50.975
- I put them right here.

00:04:50.999 --> 00:04:52.226
- No that was
afterwards Ms. Esther.- No it was not.

00:04:52.250 --> 00:04:53.018
- It was afterwards.

00:04:53.042 --> 00:04:53.999
- When Major Mcgallen was there.

00:04:54.876 --> 00:04:57.101
- When he was here they moved.
- You're just trying to-- - No I'm not, y'all
trying to, y'all,

00:04:57.125 --> 00:04:58.602
well don't talk to me Ms. Esther

00:04:58.626 --> 00:05:00.268
'cause y'all trying
to cause difficulty.

00:05:00.292 --> 00:05:01.976
- I know what the
public sidewalk isbecause the line
is right over here.

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:03.834 position:20%
Come and look at the line.

00:05:07.042 --> 00:05:10.602
- It's crazy ain't it?

00:05:10.626 --> 00:05:12.975
Yeah, she'll be
out there all day.

00:05:12.999 --> 00:05:14.626
But she's hungry, she's
tired, she's thirsty.

00:05:14.999 --> 00:05:18.393
But she's not leaving.

00:05:18.417 --> 00:05:20.209 position:20%
She'll pass out before she
leave and miss something.

00:05:21.125 --> 00:05:24.435
See that, you saw that truck?

00:05:24.459 --> 00:05:25.792
Yeah that means they're
getting ready to come back in.

00:05:26.250 --> 00:05:29.918
(contemplative music)

00:05:33.876 --> 00:05:37.852
- [Radio] The Supreme Court
has made it very clear

00:05:37.876 --> 00:05:39.059 position:20%
that is not going to
overturn Roe versus Wade.

00:05:39.083 --> 00:05:41.975
You're seeing efforts
in this state to see

00:05:41.999 --> 00:05:43.810
how far they can
take it short of

00:05:43.834 --> 00:05:44.999
restricting abortion outright.

00:05:45.209 --> 00:05:47.542
- [Radio] The GOP is waging war

00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:50.852
on women at the
grass roots level.

00:05:50.876 --> 00:05:53.685
Five states have
only one clinic left.

00:05:53.709 --> 00:05:57.018
These attacks are
creating a situation

00:05:57.042 --> 00:05:59.351
where abortion is
legal in America,

00:05:59.375 --> 00:06:02.417
and in some places
impossible to get.

00:06:02.918 --> 00:06:05.500
(contemplative music)

00:06:36.167 --> 00:06:39.727

00:06:50.209 --> 00:06:53.975 line:20%
I know, does that make sense?

00:06:53.999 --> 00:06:56.334 position:20% line:20%
Listen to what I, the
Lord told me this morning.

00:06:57.250 --> 00:07:00.185
You know we go and we
do abstinence education,

00:07:00.209 --> 00:07:02.894 position:20%
and so we give these kids these
suckers that say Dum Dums.

00:07:02.918 --> 00:07:05.852
And we say don't be a
dumb dumb, save sex.

00:07:05.876 --> 00:07:08.351
We say don't be a dumb
dumb, save sex for marriage.

00:07:08.375 --> 00:07:11.018 position:20%
But I thought today I could
say don't be a dumb dumb,

00:07:11.042 --> 00:07:13.560
you don't solve a problem
by killing a baby.

00:07:13.584 --> 00:07:15.852
- Absolutely 100%
right, I agree with you.

00:07:15.876 --> 00:07:17.975
- You hear me?

00:07:17.999 --> 00:07:19.768
- I agree with you.

00:07:19.792 --> 00:07:20.560 position:20%
- Well good, who are you?

00:07:20.584 --> 00:07:21.643

District--

00:07:24.999 --> 00:07:25.975

- 28, Cleveland.

00:07:27.167 --> 00:07:28.584 position:20%
Good, take a handful,
and don't be a dumb dumb.

00:07:32.542 --> 00:07:34.792
We're not gonna solve it
by killing our babies.

00:07:36.417 --> 00:07:38.209
- That's right.

00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:40.810
- We're gonna
solve it by findingpositive ways to
deal with the issue.

00:07:40.834 --> 00:07:43.226 line:20%
- That's right.

00:07:43.250 --> 00:07:44.101 line:20%

something in Mississippi now.

00:07:51.083 --> 00:07:54.667
(contemplative music)

00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:31.101

00:08:34.709 --> 00:08:37.125
(contemplative music)

00:08:42.209 --> 00:08:45.935
Okay, I can help you with that.

00:08:45.959 --> 00:08:47.518
Could I make an
appointment for you?

00:08:47.542 --> 00:08:49.975 line:20%
- We're a life affirming agency.

00:08:49.999 --> 00:08:51.975 line:20%
We want to affirm
the choice for life.

00:08:51.999 --> 00:08:54.209 line:20%
And help them make
a choice for life.

00:08:54.542 --> 00:08:57.292 position:20%
There's nothing life
affirming about abortion.

00:08:58.459 --> 00:09:01.351
You're deceiving
yourself if you say

00:09:01.375 --> 00:09:04.310
you can kill your baby
and it be good for you.

00:09:04.334 --> 00:09:07.727
That's just deception,
that's not true.

00:09:07.751 --> 00:09:10.667
It doesn't, it doesn't
register with reality.

00:09:10.999 --> 00:09:14.935
Mommas, women are
not made that way.

00:09:14.959 --> 00:09:17.476
Women are made to protect
and to guard and to,

00:09:17.500 --> 00:09:20.999
to die for their babies, not

00:24:07.999 --> 00:24:09.685
that other kinds
of medical clinics

00:24:09.709 --> 00:24:11.143
in Mississippi do
not have to follow.

00:24:11.167 --> 00:24:12.975
Republicans have proposed
these anti-abortion trap laws

00:24:12.999 --> 00:24:15.768
this session in Alabama,
Arizona, Florida,

00:24:15.792 --> 00:24:18.727
Indiana, Minnesota,
North Carolina,

00:24:18.751 --> 00:24:20.518
Oklahoma, Tennessee,
West Virginia.

00:24:20.542 --> 00:24:22.852
Mississippi is different though.

00:24:22.876 --> 00:24:23.976
In Mississippi officials
have been flat out

00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:25.959
admitting what they
have been trying to do.

00:24:41.626 --> 00:24:45.101
- What we simply say is that we

00:24:45.125 --> 00:24:47.999
want Mississippi to
be abortion free.

00:24:48.417 --> 00:24:51.852
(applauding)

00:24:51.876 --> 00:24:54.918
(contemplative music)

00:25:12.918 --> 00:25:16.975
- And there's a lot that's
happening here in Mississippi

00:25:16.999 --> 00:25:18.975
particularly around
abortion care.

00:25:18.999 --> 00:25:20.560
I think if people
knew the particulars

00:25:20.584 --> 00:25:21.959
that they would understand
how important it is

00:25:24.999 --> 00:25:25.751
for them to way in on the issue.

00:25:28.626 --> 00:25:31.310
I think it's very
important that the whole

00:25:31.334 --> 00:25:33.185
country and the
whole world knows

00:25:33.209 --> 00:25:34.500
what's going on
here in Mississippi.

00:25:39.250 --> 00:25:42.975
This is the letter
from a hospital,

00:25:42.999 --> 00:25:44.975
this one of the
rejection letters.

00:25:44.999 --> 00:25:46.975
It says this
hospital has received

00:25:46.999 --> 00:25:49.810
your medical staff application.

00:25:49.834 --> 00:25:51.351
After preliminary review
the hospital has determined

00:25:51.375 --> 00:25:53.059
that your application
should be denied

00:25:53.083 --> 00:25:54.643
for the following reasons,
the nature of your proposed

00:25:54.667 --> 00:25:57.768
medical practice is inconsistent

00:25:57.792 --> 00:25:59.351
with this hospital's
policies and practices

00:25:59.375 --> 00:26:01.727
as concerned abortion and in
particular elective abortion.

00:26:01.751 --> 00:26:04.975
Number two in light
of this hospital's

00:26:04.999 --> 00:26:06.975
rules and regulations concerning
therapeutic abortions,

00:26:06.999 --> 00:26:09.476
namely that privileges
for such procedures

00:26:09.500 --> 00:26:11.018
are not considered within
the core privileges

00:26:11.042 --> 00:26:12.975
for gynecology or obstetrics,

00:26:12.999 --> 00:26:15.059
your application
does not comport

00:26:15.083 --> 00:26:16.810 position:20%
with a functional
practice at this hospital.

00:26:16.834 --> 00:26:18.975
And number three, the nature of

00:26:18.999 --> 00:26:21.059
your proposed medical practice

00:26:21.083 --> 00:26:22.810
would lead to both an
internal and external

00:26:22.834 --> 00:26:25.059
disruption of this
hospital's function

00:26:25.083 --> 00:26:26.518
and business within
the community.

00:26:26.542 --> 00:26:29.709
(contemplative music)

00:26:39.167 --> 00:26:42.975
- [Protestor] Please
don't kill me!

00:26:42.999 --> 00:26:45.042 position:20%
Don't kill my fetus in me!

00:26:48.751 --> 00:26:51.975
- Yep.

00:26:51.999 --> 00:26:53.975
- [Dr. Parker] And
how many is that on?- The only one I
was waiting on was

00:26:53.999 --> 00:26:55.125
actually yours
Madison River Oaks.

00:26:56.459 --> 00:26:57.999 position:20%
It wasn't, it was at the?

00:26:59.999 --> 00:27:01.751
- So how many hospitals turned
us down altogether exactly?

00:27:03.709 --> 00:27:05.959
- We applied at seven, seven.

00:27:08.375 --> 00:27:09.834
- For each of us?

00:27:11.876 --> 00:27:12.976
- Yeah.

00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:13.975
- And that's all so.

00:27:13.999 --> 00:27:16.018 position:20% line:20%
- Basically there was a
new law that was enacted.

00:27:16.042 --> 00:27:18.476
Affectively this law has
been setup to shut us down.

00:27:18.500 --> 00:27:21.602
Which means that the
state could come in

00:27:21.626 --> 00:27:23.560
and see if we are in fact
still performing abortions.

00:27:23.584 --> 00:27:27.268
And then they could
say hey you're

00:27:27.292 --> 00:27:28.560
not in compliance
with state law.

00:27:28.584 --> 00:27:29.852
And they could enact
us getting closed down.

00:27:29.876 --> 00:27:33.476
We do have a legal
team and we are working

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:35.310
and other states are looking

00:27:35.334 --> 00:27:36.894
and saying hey
Mississippi come on.

00:27:36.918 --> 00:27:38.643
You guys have the highest
rate of teen pregnancy.

00:27:38.667 --> 00:27:40.250 line:20%
You have no sex
education anywhere.

00:27:41.375 --> 00:27:43.167
This is an issue
that predominantly

00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:46.852
affects poor black
women in this state.

00:27:46.876 --> 00:27:49.125 position:20%
- Our state is falling
tremendously in education.

00:27:49.751 --> 00:27:53.351
You mean to tell
you you got this

00:27:53.375 --> 00:27:54.999
much attention on
a woman's rights.

00:27:55.459 --> 00:27:57.959 position:20%
- I don't think you can withhold
sex education from people

00:27:59.584 --> 00:28:01.975
and then also withhold
the option for abortion.

00:28:01.999 --> 00:28:04.459
People need information
and access to care.

00:28:05.083 --> 00:28:07.999
So will see, we'll
see what happens.

00:28:08.999 --> 00:28:10.834
But the next days, weeks,
months are tentative.

00:28:11.500 --> 00:28:14.999
(contemplative music)

00:28:21.125 --> 00:28:24.709
- Y'all ready to eat?

00:28:31.209 --> 00:28:35.417
I bet Jamar is gonna eat some
butter beans and some greens.

00:28:35.667 --> 00:28:39.918 line:20%
Jamar you gonna eat some butter
beans and some greens today?

00:28:40.751 --> 00:28:44.518
I need to make you
some candied yams.

00:28:44.542 --> 00:28:46.560 position:20%
You want some candied yams?

00:28:46.584 --> 00:28:47.975
- [Jamar] Yes ma'am.

00:28:47.999 --> 00:28:49.709
- [Mother] I'll
bring it to you okay.

00:29:03.918 --> 00:29:07.351
- [April] I pray it's a boy.

00:29:07.375 --> 00:29:08.975
- Oh goodness.

00:29:08.999 --> 00:29:10.167 position:20%
Is this little one yours?

00:29:11.999 --> 00:29:13.685
Alright how old is that one?

00:29:13.709 --> 00:29:15.975
- She'll be one Tuesday.

00:29:15.999 --> 00:29:17.459
- [Nurse] Oh my
gosh, are you crazy?

00:29:17.792 --> 00:29:20.459 position:20%
How old are the other ones?

00:29:21.250 --> 00:29:24.351
- Let's just say one,
two, three, and four.

00:29:24.375 --> 00:29:26.667
- No, oh my gosh.
(baby crying)

00:29:26.999 --> 00:29:30.685
Alright, baby's head is down.

00:29:30.709 --> 00:29:32.975 position:20% line:20%
It's laying on it's belly.

00:29:32.999 --> 00:29:35.125 line:20%
Is this the last one?

00:29:38.667 --> 00:29:41.999 line:20%
Oh my gosh.

00:29:45.542 --> 00:29:48.935
Second thoughts?

00:29:48.959 --> 00:29:50.810
About what?

00:29:50.834 --> 00:29:51.626
- My baby.

00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:12.310
Be honest.

00:30:12.334 --> 00:30:13.209
- Not more than three.

00:30:24.542 --> 00:30:27.792
Awe now.

00:30:36.250 --> 00:30:39.727
- Yep, it's a boy.

00:30:39.751 --> 00:30:41.292
- [Nurse] It is a boy.

00:30:43.083 --> 00:30:46.375
- See you.
- Have a good day.

00:30:50.709 --> 00:30:54.459
- [April] Hey why
you in my stuff now?

00:31:00.999 --> 00:31:04.560 position:20%
- You know you called him.

00:31:04.584 --> 00:31:05.727
You knew he was out.

00:31:05.751 --> 00:31:06.852 line:20%
I'm just telling you,
trying to help you.

00:31:06.876 --> 00:31:10.226 line:20%
How you gonna tell
me he was out?

00:31:10.250 --> 00:31:11.975
I don't give a fuck
about him being out!

00:31:11.999 --> 00:31:13.810
- Okay Momma.

00:31:13.834 --> 00:31:15.185
- Jesus.
- Dang.

00:31:15.209 --> 00:31:16.500
- Man fill you up
with kids and he don't

00:31:17.584 --> 00:31:19.209 line:20%
give a fuck about
a damn one of them.

00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:39.042 position:20% line:20%
But to come with some more
dick in you when you ask.

00:31:43.334 --> 00:31:46.975
You know what my
children daddy tell me?

00:31:46.999 --> 00:31:48.518
Don't look for no man
to take care of you.

00:31:48.542 --> 00:31:50.042 line:20%
Don't ever look for
no man to help you.

00:31:50.542 --> 00:31:53.334
You don't need to
be worried about me,

00:31:55.542 --> 00:31:58.560
worry about your kids, don't
worry about me, don't call me. (dog barking)

00:31:58.584 --> 00:32:00.975 position:20%
Leave that dog alone boy.

00:32:00.999 --> 00:32:02.999
Put that pizza down.

00:32:03.918 --> 00:32:05.584
(dog barking)

00:32:11.250 --> 00:32:14.834
(contemplative music)

00:32:41.834 --> 00:32:45.768 line:20%
- Yes ma'am, I was wondering
'cause she has been

00:32:45.792 --> 00:32:48.602
inviting me to come to these
Momma's and Me classes.

00:32:48.626 --> 00:32:51.226
Ain't it tomorrow?

00:32:51.250 --> 00:32:52.476
- [JT] Yes, it's
tomorrow and at 11:15.

00:32:52.500 --> 00:32:55.226
- Okay can you let her know that

00:32:55.250 --> 00:32:56.810
I was gonna come to the
Mommy and Me class tomorrow.

00:32:56.834 --> 00:32:59.268
- [JT] I will, what's your name?

00:32:59.292 --> 00:33:01.959
- April Jackson.

00:33:02.999 --> 00:33:05.959
- [JT] Okay April, I've got you
down for the class tomorrow. - Okay thank you.

00:33:06.751 --> 00:33:07.250
(contemplative music)

00:34:05.250 --> 00:34:08.935
- Are you feeling bad April?

00:34:08.959 --> 00:34:11.310
No, but they just
want you to be careful

00:34:11.334 --> 00:34:13.602
'cause of your blood
pressure and stuff.

00:34:13.626 --> 00:34:16.268
Listen you're gonna
have you a whole.

00:34:16.292 --> 00:34:17.685
One of them's gonna have to be

00:34:17.709 --> 00:34:19.351
a big old football player
and make Momma lots of money.

00:34:19.375 --> 00:34:21.976
(laughing)

00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:24.334
She wanted you to
sit over there.

00:34:25.083 --> 00:34:26.918
And you get to know Ms. Sonya.

00:34:28.626 --> 00:34:29.292
- Well before I kind of get into

00:34:32.125 --> 00:34:33.435
what I had planned for today,

00:34:33.459 --> 00:34:35.685
I want you to know
I'm a friend to you.

00:34:35.709 --> 00:34:38.334 line:20%
And I care for you, so tell me
a little bit about yourself.

00:34:42.751 --> 00:34:46.560
- Well you know I'm
April Jackson anyway.

00:34:46.584 --> 00:34:48.834
I'm 24, I'm on my fifth child.

00:34:50.125 --> 00:34:51.209 line:20%
My oldest child is four.

00:34:57.334 --> 00:35:01.417 line:20%
- So kind of taking a bunch
of prerequisite courses.

00:35:04.876 --> 00:35:05.709
Okay, can you kind
of share with me

00:35:08.500 --> 00:35:10.792 line:20%
why you think you
have five kids?

00:35:51.709 --> 00:35:55.018
So hold on, so help me.

00:35:55.042 --> 00:35:57.351
So that first child
that was conceived,

00:35:57.375 --> 00:36:00.975 position:20%
you self aborted by
drinking Clorox and water?

00:36:00.999 --> 00:36:03.852
- No he, I.

00:36:03.876 --> 00:36:04.792
- When you said you bled through

00:36:06.042 --> 00:36:07.709 line:20%
I guess I took that as
the baby was aborted.

00:36:16.626 --> 00:36:20.500
What, what's the take
on forgiveness, April?

00:36:25.375 --> 00:36:29.018
The only way you
can survive in life,

00:36:29.042 --> 00:36:31.226
the only way you
can go about life,

00:36:31.250 --> 00:36:34.542 line:20%
is by leaning and
depending on Him.

00:36:40.167 --> 00:36:43.876 position:20%
- I just stopped believing.

00:36:44.918 --> 00:36:46.000 line:20%
- April what do you need today?

00:37:02.792 --> 00:37:06.751
Well let's go let you pick
out some stuff for her.

00:37:07.083 --> 00:37:10.852 position:20%
You can come right in here.

00:37:10.876 --> 00:37:12.727
Here I'll let you
look through there.

00:37:12.751 --> 00:37:16.226
Here I'll let you kind of
pick through those as well.

00:37:16.250 --> 00:37:19.417
And see what you think will fit.

00:37:32.417 --> 00:37:36.059
- Ma'am can I offer
you some info?

00:37:36.083 --> 00:37:37.226
Can I pray with you?

00:37:37.250 --> 00:37:38.560
You know God loves you
and He created you,

00:37:38.584 --> 00:37:40.417
and He has a great
plan for you life.

00:37:43.500 --> 00:37:46.685
You know God is good.

00:37:46.709 --> 00:37:48.685
The scripture says
that Jesus came

00:37:48.709 --> 00:37:49.975
to give us life and
life more abundantly.

00:37:49.999 --> 00:37:53.976
You know there's a
Crisis Pregnancy Center

00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:55.143
and they offer free sonograms?

00:37:55.167 --> 00:37:57.459 line:20%
They offer lots of free
help and counseling.

00:38:01.500 --> 00:38:05.143 line:20%
- The state is here,
for our annual.

00:38:05.167 --> 00:38:08.935
You don't find out
they're coming.

00:38:08.959 --> 00:38:09.751
You find out when they get here.

00:38:12.334 --> 00:38:16.351
They're not allowed to tell
us when they're coming.

00:38:16.375 --> 00:38:18.768
So that's the point of it
to catch you off guard.

00:38:18.792 --> 00:38:21.834
That you're up on your stuff.

00:38:27.834 --> 00:38:30.976
Need that log.

00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:32.292
Timecards, timecards.

00:38:35.709 --> 00:38:39.042 position:20% line:20%
Sure, you can ask me now.

00:38:40.125 --> 00:38:41.250 line:20%
I'm saying you better
get it while you can.

00:38:45.167 --> 00:38:47.834
- [Inspector] It
was good to see you.

00:38:48.999 --> 00:38:49.999
- You too baby, you too.

00:38:51.999 --> 00:38:55.999
- So today what, were we
deemed to be in compliance?

00:38:56.167 --> 00:39:00.476 line:20%
- [Shannon] We don't know until
they send us the paperwork.

00:39:00.500 --> 00:39:04.476 position:20%
- [Dr. Parker] Good for
you, you run a tight ship.

00:39:04.500 --> 00:39:06.226 position:20%
- Yeah, a very tight ship.

00:39:06.250 --> 00:39:07.975
- You play like you practice.

00:39:07.999 --> 00:39:09.935
That's what my coach
used to tell me.

00:39:09.959 --> 00:39:10.999
- Yay coach (cheering)
fear fingers.

00:39:11.918 --> 00:39:15.435
- [Shannon] Get out of here.

00:39:15.459 --> 00:39:16.999
- Fear fingers.

00:39:17.918 --> 00:39:21.083
- You know what you
get out of here too. It's different
every day isn't it?

00:39:21.999 --> 00:39:23.268
And it doesn't stop.

00:39:23.292 --> 00:39:24.476
Getting old, I'm getting
too old for this girl.

00:39:24.500 --> 00:39:26.975
Could of did this, probably
could have did it in my 20's.

00:39:26.999 --> 00:39:28.834
Dang I been here that long
since my 20's ain't it.

00:39:31.292 --> 00:39:32.999
(woman crying)

00:39:55.083 --> 00:39:59.185
We don't think Momma don't
know nothing 'til it's to late.

00:39:59.209 --> 00:40:01.975 position:20%
And then we be like oh God.

00:40:01.999 --> 00:40:03.268
Then we scared to tell Momma,
and scared to say anything.

00:40:03.292 --> 00:40:06.643
Feel bad 'cause you feel
like you let Momma down.

00:40:06.667 --> 00:40:09.393
You know all that stuff.

00:40:09.417 --> 00:40:11.101 position:20%
Your Momma love you, she gonna
love you regardless baby.

00:40:11.125 --> 00:40:13.751
'Cause if it happened to my
baby, I would love regardless.

00:40:14.999 --> 00:40:18.417
(contemplative music)

00:40:19.999 --> 00:40:21.626
You tell that boy gone on
Monday he's busy somewhere.

00:40:23.999 --> 00:40:26.768
Or whatever boy.

00:40:26.792 --> 00:40:28.018
Like I tell girls
and I tell mommas.

00:40:28.042 --> 00:40:29.975 position:20%
I am not gonna say she not
gonna do nothing do more.

00:40:29.999 --> 00:40:33.226
You not able to say she
not gonna do nothing 'cause

00:40:33.250 --> 00:40:34.935
we don't never think they
gonna do it in the first place.

00:40:34.959 --> 00:40:37.018
Make sure you okay.

00:40:37.042 --> 00:40:38.792
If that's what you
decide to do one day,

00:40:39.751 --> 00:40:41.435
if that's what, you
know without Momma

00:40:41.459 --> 00:40:42.975
or anybody like
you did this time,

00:40:42.999 --> 00:40:44.560
you make sure you okay.

00:40:44.584 --> 00:40:46.975
You make sure you love yourself
more than anybody else okay.

00:40:46.999 --> 00:40:49.310
And if they can't
do that then you

00:40:49.334 --> 00:40:50.975
ain't got no business
with them no way.

00:40:50.999 --> 00:40:53.185
And that's the truth.

00:40:53.209 --> 00:40:54.685
- [Dr. Parker] What
time tomorrow does

00:40:54.709 --> 00:40:57.976
have to be in
service of the Queen.

00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:00.976
- Same time, same time,
you're dismissed too.

00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:03.894
- [Dr. Parker] Which is
what My Lady, what time?

00:41:03.918 --> 00:41:05.975
- 9:30.

00:41:05.999 --> 00:41:06.852
- 9:30?

00:41:06.876 --> 00:41:07.751
- Yes.

00:41:08.542 --> 00:41:09.834
(rain falling)
(contemplative music)

00:41:25.417 --> 00:41:28.975
Well the state came in today.

00:41:28.999 --> 00:41:31.852
And of course they let
me know that they came

00:41:31.876 --> 00:41:33.476 position:20%
to check to see about
our admitting privileges.

00:41:33.500 --> 00:41:36.059
Of which of course
everybody knows

00:41:36.083 --> 00:41:38.059
that we don't have
and cannot acquire.

00:41:38.083 --> 00:41:40.518
Of course we're
not in compliance

00:41:40.542 --> 00:41:41.727
because none of
the hospitals will

00:41:41.751 --> 00:41:44.727 position:20%
allow our doctors to
have admitting privileges

00:41:44.751 --> 00:41:46.999
because they for the most
part, the majority of them,

00:41:47.918 --> 00:41:51.975
don't want to be affiliated
with the abortion facility.

00:41:51.999 --> 00:41:55.643
Now I gotta figure
out what's next.

00:41:55.667 --> 00:41:58.083 position:20%
Where do we go from here?

00:42:00.209 --> 00:42:03.834 position:20%
I don't know, I hope not.

00:42:03.999 --> 00:42:05.999
I can honestly say I don't know.

00:42:07.584 --> 00:42:10.059
I think that is the
closest, this is the closest

00:42:10.083 --> 00:42:12.999
since I've been here
that the clinic is

00:42:13.667 --> 00:42:16.209
been close to closing.

00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:18.999 position:20%
- [Director] Are you there?

00:42:20.334 --> 00:42:21.518 position:20%
Alright now, next for him
and we'll be ready to go.

00:42:21.542 --> 00:42:23.975
- [Cameraman] Okay
we're good thank you.

00:42:23.999 --> 00:42:25.500
Cell phones to off.

00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:30.643
- Tonight we travel to the last

00:42:30.667 --> 00:42:31.935 line:20%
abortion clinic in Mississippi,

00:42:31.959 --> 00:42:34.185 line:20%
which as we arrive
has only 72 hours left

00:42:34.209 --> 00:42:38.167 position:20%
before it appears the state
will shut it down forever.

00:42:39.417 --> 00:42:42.375 line:20%
- [Shannon] Okay here
we go, here we go.

00:42:43.209 --> 00:42:45.059 line:20%
- [Reporter] The last stand.

00:42:45.083 --> 00:42:46.476 line:20%
Only 72 hours left and
the clock is ticking.

00:42:46.500 --> 00:42:50.059 line:20%
It's Mississippi's
only abortion clinic.

00:42:50.083 --> 00:42:52.476 line:20%
- There are babies being killed

00:42:52.500 --> 00:42:54.226 line:20%
inside of this pink building.

00:42:54.250 --> 00:42:56.101 line:20%
- [Reporter] The
clinic on life support.

00:42:56.125 --> 00:42:57.643 line:20%
Which side wins?

00:42:57.667 --> 00:42:58.999
- [Announcer] This special
edition of Nightline,

00:43:01.459 --> 00:43:03.393
The Last Stand,
whose side is God on?

00:43:03.417 --> 00:43:05.894
We'll be back.

00:43:05.918 --> 00:43:06.959
- They said whose
side is God on.

00:43:07.000 --> 00:43:09.667 line:20%
Now that's--

00:43:16.250 --> 00:43:20.310 line:20%
- [Reporter] The clinic is
in violation of a state law.

00:43:20.334 --> 00:43:23.143 line:20%
With that hearing
fast approaching

00:43:23.167 --> 00:43:24.999 line:20%
the protestor believe they
are on the verge of triumph.

00:43:26.584 --> 00:43:28.999 line:20%
Barbara Beavers plays
a different role

00:43:30.292 --> 00:43:31.975 line:20%
in the anti-abortion
rights movement.

00:43:31.999 --> 00:43:34.101 line:20%
Beavers runs a Crisis
Pregnancy Center.

00:43:34.125 --> 00:43:37.310 line:20%
- [Barbara] We have
sanitized abortions.

00:43:37.334 --> 00:43:40.975 line:20%
We can't go back to
the coat hanger days.

00:43:40.999 --> 00:43:43.976 line:20%
So we don't call them
coat hangers anymore.

00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:47.334 line:20%
We call them cannulas.

00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:49.125 line:20%
That cannula does the same thing

00:43:51.751 --> 00:43:52.975 line:20%
to the baby that
the coat hanger did.

00:43:52.999 --> 00:43:55.975 line:20%
- Well but it doesn't
kill the mother--

00:43:55.999 --> 00:43:57.268 line:20%
- But it still kills the baby.

00:43:57.292 --> 00:44:00.351 line:20%
- [Reporter] And so
the battle continues,

00:44:00.375 --> 00:44:02.727 line:20%
each side claims a
high wall of purpose

00:44:02.751 --> 00:44:04.975 line:20%
in which there is no
room for compromise.

00:44:04.999 --> 00:44:08.292 line:20%
But for now, this
clinic stays open.

00:44:14.751 --> 00:44:18.792 position:20%
- They think life is just
what they do, that's life.

00:44:19.334 --> 00:44:23.226
And they think that's
life for everybody.

00:44:23.250 --> 00:44:25.975
They don't know
anything about the hood,

00:44:25.999 --> 00:44:28.643
the ghetto, drugs
and all that stuff.

00:44:28.667 --> 00:44:30.975
They don't know
anything about that.

00:44:30.999 --> 00:44:32.059
The whole thing is
stop trying to convince

00:44:32.083 --> 00:44:33.975
everybody else that what
they doing is the wrong thing

00:44:33.999 --> 00:44:37.834
because there is no right
except what you know.

00:44:38.209 --> 00:44:41.975
You don't want to be judged for

00:44:41.999 --> 00:44:43.351
the way that you
raise your kids.

00:44:43.375 --> 00:44:44.894
You don't want to be judged for

00:44:44.918 --> 00:44:45.975
the way that you live your life.

00:44:45.999 --> 00:44:47.810
Why are you judging
everybody for

00:44:47.834 --> 00:44:49.751
the way that they
are living theirs?

00:44:51.083 --> 00:44:52.751
They are the most judgemental
people I've ever met.

00:44:55.375 --> 00:44:58.975
I'm 41 years old, those people

00:44:58.999 --> 00:45:00.393
that stand out there
are more judgemental

00:45:00.417 --> 00:45:02.167
than anybody I have
ever met in my life.

00:45:04.375 --> 00:45:05.584
(somber music)

00:45:22.999 --> 00:45:26.292
(April crying)

00:46:05.999 --> 00:46:09.417
- Alright thank you.

00:46:37.626 --> 00:46:40.999
(somber music)

00:46:42.500 --> 00:46:43.584
(knocking on door)

00:46:53.209 --> 00:46:56.626
(somber music)

00:47:43.999 --> 00:47:47.250
(sirens blaring)

00:48:02.999 --> 00:48:06.976 position:20%
- This is not customary to
do this but JT just heard

00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:10.602
mention she was probably
sleeping with the baby.

00:48:10.626 --> 00:48:13.310
We don't always get that word.

00:48:13.334 --> 00:48:14.999
We don't always realize
that's what's going on.

00:48:21.334 --> 00:48:24.894
Is that grandma there?

00:48:24.918 --> 00:48:27.334
No that's, that's
one of the boys.

00:48:28.542 --> 00:48:30.125
Bringing presents.

00:48:31.999 --> 00:48:33.500
Bringing presents for the baby,
got something for the baby.

00:48:35.667 --> 00:48:39.018
You gonna let me in?

00:48:39.042 --> 00:48:40.852
You want to come
see it, come on?

00:48:40.876 --> 00:48:43.018
Hello there.

00:48:43.042 --> 00:48:44.042
Hello there, we brought you one.

00:48:46.375 --> 00:48:48.727 position:20%
- [April] Well come on in.

00:48:48.751 --> 00:48:50.185
- [Brother] You need
me to get that for you?

00:48:50.209 --> 00:48:52.959
- You are fine looking boys.

00:48:52.999 --> 00:48:55.125
Hey now Ty, we got you a bed.

00:48:56.667 --> 00:48:59.042
We want that bed put up
and we want in that bed.

00:49:02.500 --> 00:49:04.250 position:20%
That'll be better for you.

00:49:05.999 --> 00:49:07.975 position:20%
Give you a little space
from these other children.

00:49:07.999 --> 00:49:11.059
Well let's pray for your mama.

00:49:11.083 --> 00:49:13.226
Father God thank you
for what you're doing

00:49:13.250 --> 00:49:15.810
in our lives, it's
not easy Lord.

00:49:15.834 --> 00:49:18.810
But you can enable
us and empower us

00:49:18.834 --> 00:49:20.976 position:20%
and I pray grace for April.

00:49:21.000 --> 00:49:23.935
Okay well I need to scoot back,

00:49:23.959 --> 00:49:26.393
Ms. Marlene's by herself
so I need to go back.

00:49:26.417 --> 00:49:29.584
But keep us in touch.

00:49:30.292 --> 00:49:31.292
We love you.
- We'll see y'all.

00:49:33.999 --> 00:49:35.268
- We'll see you later.

00:49:35.292 --> 00:49:37.083
I trust that that'll
be a blessing.

00:49:38.375 --> 00:49:40.417 line:20%
You come on when you can,
come on when you can April.

00:50:06.042 --> 00:50:09.417
Oh my lands.

00:50:13.167 --> 00:50:17.167
I think of where I been
this weekend with my grands.

00:50:18.792 --> 00:50:22.042
It makes me sad.

00:50:24.042 --> 00:50:27.459
It makes me sad.

00:50:29.417 --> 00:50:33.375
I'm torn about that if you
want to know the truth.

00:50:34.209 --> 00:50:38.000
I don't know, I don't
know about that.

00:50:38.999 --> 00:50:41.209
I don't think birth
control is the answer.

00:50:42.876 --> 00:50:45.101
I think ultimately what's gonna

00:50:45.125 --> 00:50:46.185
work is gonna be self control.

00:50:46.209 --> 00:50:48.810
And I think that's
our job moreso than

00:50:48.834 --> 00:50:51.584
giving her birth control is to,

00:50:53.042 --> 00:50:54.042
to encourage her
to assess herself

00:50:56.918 --> 00:51:00.459
and her value and her worth in
such a way that she does not,

00:51:05.459 --> 00:51:08.975
she doesn't give herself away.

00:51:08.999 --> 00:51:11.602
The real issue with
abortion is our immorality,

00:51:11.626 --> 00:51:14.975
our sexual immorality.

00:51:14.999 --> 00:51:16.792 position:20%
And who am I to say that?

00:51:17.999 --> 00:51:19.435
I'm not, but God
says it in His word.

00:51:19.459 --> 00:51:22.435
And I've seen it work positively

00:51:22.459 --> 00:51:24.768
in my own life and in
the lives of others.

00:51:24.792 --> 00:51:26.975
And I've seen it work negatively

00:51:26.999 --> 00:51:29.018
when done in the world's ways.

00:51:29.042 --> 00:51:32.018
God's ways work and that's
why don't give birth control

00:51:32.042 --> 00:51:35.226
or all that kind of stuff
'cause God's ways work.

00:51:35.250 --> 00:51:37.976
And they're 100%
affective and they're

00:51:38.000 --> 00:51:39.935
good for you body,
soul, and spirit.

00:51:39.959 --> 00:51:43.125
(contemplative music)

00:51:47.834 --> 00:51:51.101
- [April] Hey guys.

00:51:51.125 --> 00:51:52.393 position:20%
- Could you sign in for me?

00:51:52.417 --> 00:51:54.709 line:20%
- [Ms. Sonya] Hey bundle of joy.

I am being very rude aren't I?

00:52:45.167 --> 00:52:47.768
But she's new and she
needs to. (laughing)

Don't go out and make
the mistakes I made.

and really shining a
light on nationwide

00:55:01.584 --> 00:55:03.518 line:20%
there's a state of emergency
for abortion rights.

00:55:03.542 --> 00:55:05.894
I guess one thing
I want to ask you

00:55:05.918 --> 00:55:07.768
that we would like to
learn more about too

00:55:07.792 --> 00:55:09.310
is maybe you could
tell us a little

00:55:09.334 --> 00:55:11.018
bit about the patients you see.

00:55:11.042 --> 00:55:13.226
- I don't even
know where to start

00:55:13.250 --> 00:55:15.852
as far as what type
of patients are there.

00:55:15.876 --> 00:55:18.894
Of course the majority
of our patients

00:55:18.918 --> 00:55:20.018
are African American patients.

00:55:20.042 --> 00:55:22.667
I saw a lot of
patients who would come

00:55:23.542 --> 00:55:24.727
for their first visit
and you know the come,

00:55:24.751 --> 00:55:26.975
I've seen them come for their
first visit and be six weeks.

00:55:26.999 --> 00:55:29.685
And come back at last day
that they can be here.

00:55:29.709 --> 00:55:33.518
Trying to come up
with the money,

00:55:33.542 --> 00:55:34.727
as you're trying to
come up with the money

00:55:34.751 --> 00:55:35.852
with the fetus debt
increases and then.

00:55:35.876 --> 00:55:36.976
So I've seen that a lot.

00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:39.852
- I'm glad there's the funds
but that Hyde Amendment,

00:55:39.876 --> 00:55:41.643
that's what's killing women
that you're on Medicaid,

00:55:41.667 --> 00:55:44.185
you can't use that to
cover your abortion.

00:55:44.209 --> 00:55:46.685
But it's outrageous that
there are these laws

00:55:46.709 --> 00:55:48.975 position:20%
saying you can get any
kind of medical procedure

00:55:48.999 --> 00:55:50.351
covered, almost, but
not if you're pregnant

00:55:50.375 --> 00:55:53.310
and you don't want to
be, you can't get that.

00:55:53.334 --> 00:55:55.310
- Because I mean we
even have patients who

00:55:55.334 --> 00:55:57.727
get funding and
still don't have,

00:55:57.751 --> 00:56:00.975
can't come up with
the other part.

00:56:00.999 --> 00:56:02.459
- I know because the funds they,

00:56:03.250 --> 00:56:07.810
I know what they do
and it's a good thing. But they say do you have,
can you collect cans?Do you have any
jewelry you can sell?

00:56:07.834 --> 00:56:09.143
- [Shannon] Or can
you pawn, yeah.

00:56:09.167 --> 00:56:10.393
- [Activist] Can
you pawn something.

00:56:10.417 --> 00:56:11.476 position:20%
Women go through a lot of--

00:56:11.500 --> 00:56:12.476
- It's like being
degraded almost.

00:56:12.500 --> 00:56:15.975
- [Activist] Yeah it
is very degrading.

00:56:15.999 --> 00:56:17.083
- Yeah.

00:56:17.999 --> 00:56:19.268

is gearing up for a legal
fight to keep the doors open.

00:56:20.999 --> 00:56:24.768
In a socially and religiously
conservative state,

00:56:24.792 --> 00:56:27.435
some say political
pressure may be a reason

00:56:27.459 --> 00:56:29.975
hospitals haven't signed
on to help the clinic.

00:56:29.999 --> 00:56:33.975 position:20%
- The question that the court
is really asking tomorrow

00:56:33.999 --> 00:56:35.935
is can the state
constitutionally do,

00:56:35.959 --> 00:56:38.560
indirectly and underhandedly,
what it very clearly

00:56:38.584 --> 00:56:42.226
may not do directly which
is to outright ban abortion.

00:56:42.250 --> 00:56:45.894
The real story here
is what's at stake

00:56:45.918 --> 00:56:48.518
is the lives, and the health,

00:56:48.542 --> 00:56:49.976

women in Mississippi.

00:56:55.375 --> 00:56:56.975

gonna tell the women

of Mississippi and
around the country

00:56:57.999 --> 00:56:59.643
that they can't have abortions?

00:56:59.667 --> 00:57:01.143
- [Crowd] Hell no!

00:57:01.167 --> 00:57:02.727
- Are we gonna tell
women they should

00:57:02.751 --> 00:57:03.975
be ashamed of their abortions?

I have never experienced
this many people

00:57:26.999 --> 00:57:30.500
just coming out for
us, for all clinics.

00:57:32.125 --> 00:57:33.918 position:20%
We have got to take shame
out of the word abortion.

00:57:36.167 --> 00:57:39.518
And until we stop being
ashamed of who are

00:57:39.542 --> 00:57:43.101 position:20%
and what we believe in and
what we know to be right,

00:57:43.125 --> 00:57:45.727

It took me a long
time but when I found

00:57:49.626 --> 00:57:52.685
what my reason and
my purpose was,

00:57:52.709 --> 00:57:55.042
it's like a liberating feeling.

00:57:55.792 --> 00:57:57.751
Just knowing that this is what

00:57:59.292 --> 00:58:00.143

for our bodies and our
lives and our future.

01:04:26.042 --> 01:04:30.101
- One of my children I was
gonna give up for adoption.

01:04:30.125 --> 01:04:32.518
Because I went to
abortion clinic.

01:04:32.542 --> 01:04:34.685
I remember I came
home and I just cried,

01:04:34.709 --> 01:04:36.518
cried, cried, 'cause
I was too far.

01:04:36.542 --> 01:04:38.999
I was barely making it,
I was barely making it.

01:04:39.125 --> 01:04:42.975
I had just moved
to my apartment.

01:04:42.999 --> 01:04:44.042
I didn't have any furniture.

01:04:45.250 --> 01:04:47.059
I had a matrass that I had
gotten from Salvation Army.

01:04:47.083 --> 01:04:49.459
And that's what I
had in my house.

01:04:50.959 --> 01:04:53.751
I had children at this time
and we slept on the mattress.

01:04:54.083 --> 01:04:57.975
So when they brought
the baby to the room

01:04:57.999 --> 01:04:59.602
and I picked the baby up
and I was hugging the baby.

01:04:59.626 --> 01:05:03.143
And I just, I
decided I could not

01:05:03.167 --> 01:05:06.435
do it right there at that point.

01:05:06.459 --> 01:05:08.602
I couldn't have a
child come back to me

01:05:08.626 --> 01:05:10.999
when they turn however
old and say why, why.

01:05:13.334 --> 01:05:14.792
If you have an
abortion you don't

01:05:16.999 --> 01:05:18.393
even know who this
would have been.

01:05:18.417 --> 01:05:21.334
So that's totally
two different things

01:05:22.042 --> 01:05:23.975
and that's what
people don't get.

01:05:23.999 --> 01:05:27.310
It's harder to see your child,

01:05:27.334 --> 01:05:29.751
and then just hand your
child away to somebody.

01:05:31.709 --> 01:05:33.667
I believe in abortion because,

01:05:35.209 --> 01:05:38.626 position:20%
no woman should have to
feel the way that I feel.

01:05:41.292 --> 01:05:42.751 position:20%
No woman should have to do
that, they just shouldn't.

01:06:39.167 --> 01:06:42.894
- He's such a fucking asshole.

01:06:42.918 --> 01:06:45.626 line:20%
Excuse my language.

01:07:36.709 --> 01:07:40.042
(contemplative music)

01:08:49.834 --> 01:08:53.975
- [Reporter] Mississippi's only
abortion clinic vandalized.

01:08:53.999 --> 01:08:56.476 position:20%
Security cameras ripped down,
power cords tampered with,

01:08:56.500 --> 01:08:59.727
and their generator vandalized.

01:08:59.751 --> 01:09:01.768
Surveillance video may just have

01:09:01.792 --> 01:09:03.727
captured the prime
suspect on camera.

01:09:03.751 --> 01:09:06.476
- Let me be clear, make
no mistake about it,

01:09:06.500 --> 01:09:09.685
this is a form of
domestic terrorism.

01:09:09.709 --> 01:09:11.727 line:20%
- We're doing around
the clock security.

01:09:11.751 --> 01:09:13.727 line:20%
We have someone
watching at all times,

01:09:13.751 --> 01:09:15.999 line:20%
either on the facility of
somewhere close around.

01:09:17.083 --> 01:09:20.751
(contemplative music)

01:09:22.999 --> 01:09:23.959
- Number one cause
of death in America.

01:09:26.834 --> 01:09:29.018
God hates the hands that
shed innocent blood sir,

01:09:29.042 --> 01:09:32.018
and you're actually helping
them do that right now.

01:09:32.042 --> 01:09:35.351
You're the part of the
system that kills children.

01:09:35.375 --> 01:09:37.975
Half the black women
who get pregnant

01:09:37.999 --> 01:09:39.518 position:20%
will have an abortion sir.

01:09:39.542 --> 01:09:42.185 line:20%
- [Keith] You don't have
to come in here guys.

01:09:42.209 --> 01:09:45.125 line:20%
I'm not a protestor
I'm a peacemaker.

01:09:45.375 --> 01:09:48.975
- And make no mistake about it.

01:09:48.999 --> 01:09:50.685
What you are doing
here is wanton,

01:09:50.709 --> 01:09:53.999
wilful, premeditated murder.

01:09:58.042 --> 01:10:02.083 position:20% line:20%
- It's the OSA, OSA which
is Operation Save America,

01:10:03.209 --> 01:10:06.976
and AHA which is
Abolish Human Abortion,

01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:10.918
which that's one of
the newer groups.

01:10:11.000 --> 01:10:13.999
There are quite a few of them

01:10:14.751 --> 01:10:16.167
from the dossier that are here.

01:10:19.918 --> 01:10:23.334 position:20%
T Russell, you have Toby.

01:10:25.500 --> 01:10:28.584 position:20%
Alright you too, bye bye.

01:10:28.999 --> 01:10:30.792
She don't know shit.

01:10:32.292 --> 01:10:34.894
Swear to God I hate
talking to the same people.

01:10:34.918 --> 01:10:37.768
I'm like, she's asking
me who's gonna be here,

01:10:37.792 --> 01:10:39.999
and I'm like is the fucking FBI?

01:10:42.834 --> 01:10:46.935 position:20%
That's why I know these people
are not gonna protect you.

01:10:46.959 --> 01:10:49.185
These people are gonna come out

01:10:49.209 --> 01:10:50.268
the wood works after
somebody gets killed.

01:10:50.292 --> 01:10:52.975
Then they'll come
out the wood works

01:10:52.999 --> 01:10:55.560
and everybody wants
to be the hero and say oh I have all your
screening there was

01:10:55.584 --> 01:10:57.393
a this on premise, man
please somebody's dead now.

01:10:57.417 --> 01:11:01.143
I don't care nothing
about what you got now.

01:11:01.167 --> 01:11:03.834
(Shannon sighs heavily)

01:11:05.292 --> 01:11:07.000
(contemplative music)

01:11:18.834 --> 01:11:22.935
The truth is out because I
know it's something going on.

01:11:22.959 --> 01:11:25.250
Keith Dawson leads the Jackson,
Mississippi chapter of AHA.

01:11:25.709 --> 01:11:29.727 position:20% line:20%
He has targeted Willie
Parker as part of the AHA

01:11:29.751 --> 01:11:32.975 line:20%
Call Out the Killers campaign.

01:11:32.999 --> 01:11:35.602
They have a Call Out
the Killers campaign?

01:11:35.626 --> 01:11:37.975 line:20%
Now tell me that
doesn't look scary.

01:11:37.999 --> 01:11:39.685 line:20%
- Okay but who was passing
through here early this morning?

01:11:39.709 --> 01:11:42.975
On a day we supposed
to be closed, Keith.

01:11:42.999 --> 01:11:44.393
- He was on his way to work.

01:11:44.417 --> 01:11:45.975
- [Shannon] Right, see how you

01:11:45.999 --> 01:11:47.268
keep justifying
Keith out of that.

01:11:47.292 --> 01:11:49.226
- I'm not justifying Keith,
I'm funning with you.

01:11:49.250 --> 01:11:51.351
The only thing that
I was serious about

01:11:51.375 --> 01:11:52.975
was when she said do
you think it was Keith?

01:11:52.999 --> 01:11:54.685
And I don't think
Keith did that.

01:11:54.709 --> 01:11:56.975
And I don't think
Keith would do that.

01:11:56.999 --> 01:11:57.976
All the other stuff I
was bullshitting about.

01:11:58.000 --> 01:11:59.975
- But my thing is I
don't feel that way

01:11:59.999 --> 01:12:01.975
about anybody from Ms.
Esther on, on the other side.

01:12:01.999 --> 01:12:04.894
Because the fact,
but the fact that

01:12:04.918 --> 01:12:06.518
you're on this side,
that bothers me.

01:12:06.542 --> 01:12:08.643
You don't know nothing about
that man when he leaves here.

01:12:08.667 --> 01:12:10.976 position:20%
You know what he tells you,
what you read on Facebook.

01:12:11.000 --> 01:12:13.476
You don't know what's in that,

01:12:13.500 --> 01:12:16.560
that man could be building
a bomb in house right now,and come up here smiling
in your face every day.

01:12:16.584 --> 01:12:18.727
We don't know that.

01:12:18.751 --> 01:12:19.975
- And now I see where
the root is of all this.

01:12:19.999 --> 01:12:21.975
And I was not trying
to offend you,

01:12:21.999 --> 01:12:23.542
upset you, or take
or make it seem

01:12:23.999 --> 01:12:26.334
less serious than what it is.

01:12:27.542 --> 01:12:28.975
- If anybody let's
their guard down,

01:12:28.999 --> 01:12:30.768
something happens here,
something happens to this staff,

01:12:30.792 --> 01:12:32.976
I feel responsible for all
this shit, you don't get that.

01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:36.226
And for you to say
that and I'm thinking

01:12:36.250 --> 01:12:37.976
she got them out there.

01:12:38.000 --> 01:12:39.975
You not gonna be
able to tell me that.

01:12:39.999 --> 01:12:41.975
You see what I'm saying?

01:12:41.999 --> 01:12:42.975
You not gonna tell me
he wouldn't do that.

01:12:42.999 --> 01:12:44.975
I'm sorry, because I
don't believe that.

01:12:44.999 --> 01:12:47.435
I don't believe that he
won't do that, I just.

01:12:47.459 --> 01:12:49.975
- [Guard] I apologize, I do.

01:12:49.999 --> 01:12:52.792
(contemplative music)

01:13:02.792 --> 01:13:06.101
- Alright here we are.

01:13:06.125 --> 01:13:08.542
(contemplative music)

01:13:16.709 --> 01:13:20.518
Not like, if you've
been there for a while

01:13:20.542 --> 01:13:22.894
you already cautious
but you become,

01:13:22.918 --> 01:13:25.143
you know you become
a little relaxed.

01:13:25.167 --> 01:13:26.975
This kind of wakes
me back up you know?

01:13:26.999 --> 01:13:29.268 position:20%
Get it together now
Shannon, get it together.

01:13:29.292 --> 01:13:31.935 position:20%
You know it's some loonies
out here, get it together.

01:13:31.959 --> 01:13:34.018 line:20%
(laughing)

01:13:34.042 --> 01:13:36.334
Right here.
- Oh alright.

01:13:37.250 --> 01:13:38.101
My husband was
coaching that team.

01:13:38.125 --> 01:13:39.643
- Mr. Waters?
- Yeah.

01:13:39.667 --> 01:13:40.999 line:20%
- Ow wow okay, my son's Jarvis.

01:13:42.792 --> 01:13:43.500 line:20%
- Oh no no no.

01:13:45.999 --> 01:13:47.351
I'm the director at the
abortion facility here.

01:13:47.375 --> 01:13:50.143
- [Mrs. Waters] So like are
you interested in staying here?

01:13:50.167 --> 01:13:51.768 line:20%
- Sure.

01:13:51.792 --> 01:13:52.584
Wow, oh my God.

01:13:53.999 --> 01:13:54.999 position:20%
Wow, ain't that something?

01:13:57.459 --> 01:13:58.975 line:20%
Where are you?

01:13:58.999 --> 01:14:00.125 line:20%
Are you serious?

01:14:01.334 --> 01:14:02.435
Wow.

01:14:02.459 --> 01:14:03.935
The one thing I don't
think dealing with

01:14:03.959 --> 01:14:05.975
like the pro-life places,
and I don't know you as far

01:14:05.999 --> 01:14:09.975
as I don't know a lot about
the place where you are.

01:14:09.999 --> 01:14:11.852
But a lot of these places don't

01:14:11.876 --> 01:14:13.310
give women the
resources they need.

01:14:13.334 --> 01:14:16.059
It's something that's missing
that they're not getting

01:14:16.083 --> 01:14:17.643
to put them there because
me as a woman I know.

01:14:17.667 --> 01:14:19.975 position:20%
I have six kids of my own.

01:14:19.999 --> 01:14:21.768
I know that you can
get in these situations

01:14:21.792 --> 01:14:24.975
and you don't know
what you're gonna do.

01:14:24.999 --> 01:14:27.518
- What we do is we say
you have three options.

01:14:27.542 --> 01:14:30.351
These are your three options.

01:14:30.375 --> 01:14:32.185
What do you know about
each of these options?

01:14:32.209 --> 01:14:33.975
- Got you.

01:14:33.999 --> 01:14:34.935
- And then if someone would say

01:14:34.959 --> 01:14:36.143
well I'm thinking about
having an abortion.

01:14:36.167 --> 01:14:37.975
So then I say tell me everything
you know about abortion.

01:14:37.999 --> 01:14:40.975
To see how much
they know about it.

01:14:40.999 --> 01:14:43.518
- [Shannon] Oh J Boo up.

01:14:43.542 --> 01:14:45.185
- [Mrs. Waters]
Oh is this yours?

01:14:45.209 --> 01:14:46.000
- [Shannon] This is me yeah.

01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:49.709
This is the thing when
I got pregnant with him, his dad and I were friends.

01:14:53.375 --> 01:14:57.143
I went to have an
abortion, I was too far.

01:14:57.167 --> 01:14:59.226
I signed papers to have
an adoption to get,

01:14:59.250 --> 01:15:02.310
for my baby to be
adopted and everything.

01:15:02.334 --> 01:15:03.935
And when they brought
him to me to see him

01:15:03.959 --> 01:15:05.560
I called the adoption people
and told them I couldn't do it.

01:15:05.584 --> 01:15:08.476 line:20%
But that's, and that's that one.

01:15:08.500 --> 01:15:09.975 line:20%
That's right, yeah
that's my fifth one.

01:15:09.999 --> 01:15:13.685
Yep I got one under him.

01:15:13.709 --> 01:15:15.709
And that's just basically what I

01:15:16.999 --> 01:15:19.685 position:20%
live everyday for is just
to make sure they're good.

01:15:19.709 --> 01:15:23.226 position:20%
'Cause my thing is if you,

01:15:23.250 --> 01:15:25.059
I am pro-choice because I
don't feel the need to judge

01:15:25.083 --> 01:15:28.560
the next person and tell
the next person what to do.

01:15:28.584 --> 01:15:30.476
Because a lot of the
adults that we have,

01:15:30.500 --> 01:15:32.310
including me, grew up lacking,

01:15:32.334 --> 01:15:35.185
not materialistic
stuff, stuff from here.

01:15:35.209 --> 01:15:38.542 position:20%
And then you become, you're
lacking that as an adult.

01:15:38.792 --> 01:15:42.500 line:20%
And that changes
your whole world.

01:15:50.959 --> 01:15:54.375 position:20%
Oh it's wild, it is wild.

01:15:57.999 --> 01:16:01.226 line:20%
That's okay.

01:16:01.250 --> 01:16:02.334 line:20%
Yeah she's a pro-lifer.

01:16:04.626 --> 01:16:06.667 line:20%
It wasn't bad, we sat there
and talked for a long time.

01:16:07.250 --> 01:16:10.876 line:20%
She's pro-life yeah.

01:16:16.542 --> 01:16:19.999 line:20%
So it's a good thing.

01:16:21.918 --> 01:16:25.999
Oh you always got to be so
negative about everything baby.

01:16:26.999 --> 01:16:30.626
(contemplative music)

01:17:21.167 --> 01:17:24.560 line:20%
(phone ringing)

01:17:24.584 --> 01:17:27.518 line:20%
- How you doing today?

01:17:27.542 --> 01:17:28.976 line:20%
- [Barbara] I'm doing
good, how are you doing?

01:17:29.000 --> 01:17:31.626 line:20%
- I'm tired as ever.

01:17:32.083 --> 01:17:33.209 line:20%
Yeah I still do both of them.

01:17:35.834 --> 01:17:38.602
- [Barbara] Oh my
goodness that's just.

01:17:38.626 --> 01:17:40.959 position:20%
- Today is, shut up girl.

01:17:41.999 --> 01:17:42.999 line:20%
(baby crying)

01:17:45.334 --> 01:17:47.999
My check didn't come
Saturday so I'm hoping

01:17:49.083 --> 01:17:51.709 line:20%
it come today so I
can do something.

01:17:52.999 --> 01:17:54.709 line:20%
Yeah they here, they here now.

01:18:01.292 --> 01:18:04.643 line:20%
Okay, okay.

01:18:04.667 --> 01:18:05.626
- [Barbara] Okay,
talk to you later.

01:18:06.542 --> 01:18:07.935
- Okay.

01:18:07.959 --> 01:18:08.935 position:20%
- [Barbara] Bye, bye bye.

01:18:08.959 --> 01:18:11.143
- [Brother] That
was Ms. Barbara?

01:18:11.167 --> 01:18:11.975
- [April] Yes.

01:18:11.999 --> 01:18:12.999 position:20% line:20%
- [Brother] Is she coming?

01:18:13.959 --> 01:18:14.999
- [April] Hi Ricky
this is April.

01:18:17.584 --> 01:18:19.143
I was calling because I haven't

01:18:19.167 --> 01:18:20.476
received a check
today or Saturday.

01:18:20.500 --> 01:18:23.000
And I just was checking
on seeing why it

01:18:24.709 --> 01:18:27.209
(contemplative music)

01:18:37.459 --> 01:18:40.959
(car approaching)

01:18:48.375 --> 01:18:52.167
- Love your dress,
look this is Aunt Bevy.

01:18:52.999 --> 01:18:55.876 position:20%
I brought Aunt Bevy, this
is everybody's Aunt Bevy.

01:18:57.000 --> 01:19:00.268
This is April.

01:19:00.292 --> 01:19:01.500 position:20%
We got enchiladas for you.

01:19:03.999 --> 01:19:04.500
- Not yet.

01:19:09.918 --> 01:19:13.018
- I'm sorry.

01:19:13.042 --> 01:19:14.125
Come on Malikye, we
want to see you walk.

01:19:16.584 --> 01:19:18.959
Get up boy.

01:19:22.209 --> 01:19:25.792
(contemplative music)

01:19:49.083 --> 01:19:52.999
- [Shannon] Thanks
for the enchiladas.

01:19:53.250 --> 01:19:56.918
(contemplative music)

01:20:14.500 --> 01:20:17.727
- Yep.

01:20:17.751 --> 01:20:18.626
Yep, make me some mula.

01:20:22.167 --> 01:20:25.226
Some more what?

01:20:25.250 --> 01:20:26.125
- Candy.

01:20:26.999 --> 01:20:30.268
- Why we always got to
buy candy with the money? Let's buy some fish this time.

01:20:30.292 --> 01:20:32.334
Wanna buy some fish?

01:20:43.042 --> 01:20:46.435
- [April] Who?

01:20:46.459 --> 01:20:47.334
- You.

01:20:59.999 --> 01:21:03.626 position:20%
- [April] Yep, little dude.

01:21:04.709 --> 01:21:05.999 line:20%
- You take your thing with you?

01:21:08.209 --> 01:21:11.393 position:20%
- [April] I love you too.

01:21:11.417 --> 01:21:13.918
(contemplative music)

01:21:19.834 --> 01:21:23.476
- She wanted to come
over last night.

01:21:23.500 --> 01:21:25.393
Y'all I go to sleep at night.

01:21:25.417 --> 01:21:28.167 line:20%
She's up all night
probably kinda.

01:21:28.542 --> 01:21:30.999 line:20%
Because of the night shift yeah.

01:21:32.042 --> 01:21:34.393
I think I'm afraid
she's gonna burn her,

01:21:34.417 --> 01:21:36.375
I'm afraid she's
bitten off more than,

01:21:36.959 --> 01:21:39.584
and that's youth, I
think that's youth.

01:21:40.751 --> 01:21:43.810
You've got to learn
to pace a little bit.

01:21:43.834 --> 01:21:46.602
You've got to learn to balance.

01:21:46.626 --> 01:21:47.852 position:20%
And my goodness, how
much does she have to do?

01:21:47.876 --> 01:21:50.792
You know it's just,
so I'm gonna cry.

01:21:51.584 --> 01:21:53.918
But sometimes you just need
something to keep you going.

01:21:56.542 --> 01:22:00.435
And April's my call
to keep going now.

01:22:00.459 --> 01:22:03.918
I've had the Lord just
intermittently, I'm weeping.

01:22:08.209 --> 01:22:11.975
Just waiting for
it to get easier.

01:22:11.999 --> 01:22:14.999
It doesn't get easier.

01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:20.643 position:20%
We're on the winning side.

01:22:20.667 --> 01:22:22.959 position:20%
And there's a glorious day.

01:22:24.000 --> 01:22:26.417
- [Interviewer] Do
you think there's

01:22:27.999 --> 01:22:29.975
a chance she could
get pregnant again?

01:22:29.999 --> 01:22:31.999
- I'm sure there is,
I'm sure there is.

01:22:33.999 --> 01:22:37.792
I see the solution
as self control,

01:22:38.542 --> 01:22:40.709
as learning how to
control ourselves.

01:22:42.250 --> 01:22:43.975
And plus condoms, they don't
prevent even used correctly.

01:22:43.999 --> 01:22:48.042 position:20%
There's like a 20% failure
rate, even used correctly.

01:22:48.459 --> 01:22:52.500
There's a relatively high
failure rate of condoms.

01:22:53.334 --> 01:22:57.185
- [Interviewer] I
thought if a condom's

01:22:57.209 --> 01:22:58.602
used correctly
it's 98% affective.

01:22:58.626 --> 01:23:00.059 position:20%
- Oh I don't believe that.

01:23:00.083 --> 01:23:01.975
I don't think that's, I
don't think that's correct.

01:23:01.999 --> 01:23:04.975
I would question that.

01:23:04.999 --> 01:23:06.975
I'll find some of
our data. (laughing)

01:23:06.999 --> 01:23:10.167
Send you some of that,
you can look at that.

01:23:11.083 --> 01:23:14.751
(contemplative music)

01:23:42.000 --> 01:23:45.560
- 17 weeks and two days.

01:23:45.584 --> 01:23:48.000 line:20%
- [Mother] She's too far,
she can't do it can she?

01:23:50.792 --> 01:23:52.209
(contemplative music)

01:24:15.834 --> 01:24:19.518
- She was too far
for us to see her

01:24:19.542 --> 01:24:22.185
because we only go to 16 weeks.

01:24:22.209 --> 01:24:24.918
That's what they put
these laws in place for.

01:24:27.918 --> 01:24:29.417 position:20%
They don't put the laws
in place to protect women.

01:24:31.876 --> 01:24:34.935
And she may not have
money to go out of town.

01:24:34.959 --> 01:24:36.976
And I guess you could say
the antis feel like they won.

01:24:37.000 --> 01:24:39.810
That's the point of it right?

01:24:39.834 --> 01:24:40.894
So they feel like they
saved another one today.

01:24:40.918 --> 01:24:43.976
But at the same time
what did you save?

01:24:44.000 --> 01:24:47.643 position:20%
You know what I'm saying?

01:24:47.667 --> 01:24:48.435
What did you do?

01:24:48.459 --> 01:24:49.999
You have made a
person's life harder.

01:24:50.667 --> 01:24:53.083
You judged her and
you made it harder.

01:24:54.417 --> 01:24:56.042
Judged all women as a whole,
and you made it harder.

01:24:57.500 --> 01:25:01.000
(contemplative music)

01:25:14.542 --> 01:25:18.351
- The Supreme Court
taking up it's biggest

01:25:18.375 --> 01:25:19.976
abortion case in
nearly 25 years.

01:25:20.000 --> 01:25:22.810 line:20%
- Is agreeing to
review a Texas law

01:25:22.834 --> 01:25:24.268 line:20%
that could force more
than three quarters

01:25:24.292 --> 01:25:26.768 line:20%
of the states abortion to close.

01:25:26.792 --> 01:25:29.768
- [Reporter] The Texas trap
law does the same thing

01:25:29.792 --> 01:25:31.393
that Mississippi famously
tried to do last year,

01:25:31.417 --> 01:25:33.375
endangering that state's
only remaining clinic.

01:25:33.792 --> 01:25:37.209 line:20%
(contemplative music)

01:25:39.083 --> 01:25:40.417 line:20%
- [Activist] The
fact of the matter

01:25:42.959 --> 01:25:43.810 position:20% line:20%
is that lives are at stake.

01:25:43.834 --> 01:25:46.560 line:20%
Individual lives are at stake.

01:25:46.584 --> 01:25:48.959 line:20%
Your lives are at stake.

01:25:50.959 --> 01:25:53.975
- If they close all the
abortion clinics then

01:25:53.999 --> 01:25:55.894
they think women are gonna
stop having abortions.

01:25:55.918 --> 01:25:57.852 position:20%
They were having abortions
before they made it legal.

01:25:57.876 --> 01:26:00.685
What makes them think
they can stop it now?

01:26:00.709 --> 01:26:02.976 position:20%
(cheering and applauding)

01:26:03.000 --> 01:26:06.643
- Somebody once said life is
not fair but the law should be.

01:26:06.667 --> 01:26:09.975 position:20%
(cheering and applauding)

01:26:09.999 --> 01:26:11.975
And these trap laws are not fair

01:26:11.999 --> 01:26:13.059
to the women of this country.

01:26:13.083 --> 01:26:15.310 position:20%
I flew in last evening
from Jackson, Mississippi.

01:26:15.334 --> 01:26:17.894 position:20%
(cheering and applauding)

01:26:17.918 --> 01:26:19.975
Yesterday I saw a
woman from Louisiana.

01:26:19.999 --> 01:26:22.560
Now that state will
only have one clinic

01:26:22.584 --> 01:26:24.393
because of recent
changes in the law.

01:26:24.417 --> 01:26:26.101 position:20%
She told me that she works
as a health administrator

01:26:26.125 --> 01:26:28.560
in an ER and that
they were seeing

01:26:28.584 --> 01:26:30.101
women there with
complications from

01:26:30.125 --> 01:26:32.727
do it yourself medications
on the internet.

01:26:32.751 --> 01:26:36.351
And when I told her
I was gonna be here

01:26:36.375 --> 01:26:37.975
she said you make sure that you

01:26:37.999 --> 01:26:39.518
tell them up there what's
happening down here.

01:26:39.542 --> 01:26:41.852 position:20%
(cheering and applauding)

01:26:41.876 --> 01:26:43.226
In November I want you to vote

01:26:43.250 --> 01:26:44.975
as if women's lives depend
on it because they will.

01:26:44.999 --> 01:26:47.334 position:20%
(cheering and applauding)

01:26:48.000 --> 01:26:51.667
(contemplative music)

01:27:02.709 --> 01:27:06.101 position:20%
- I think they'll be fair.

01:27:06.125 --> 01:27:08.310
But at the same time
of course we know

01:27:08.334 --> 01:27:09.602
that this won't be
the end of anything.

01:27:09.626 --> 01:27:11.268
Soon as you're too happy and say

01:27:11.292 --> 01:27:12.792 position:20%
okay this is great, there
just come something else.

01:27:13.999 --> 01:27:17.626
(contemplative music)

01:27:26.292 --> 01:27:30.185
♪ Have you been to Jesus
for his cleansing power

01:27:30.209 --> 01:27:33.918
♪ Are you washed in
the blood of the lamb

01:27:33.999 --> 01:27:37.975
♪ Are you fully trusting
in His grace this hour

01:27:37.999 --> 01:27:42.000 line:20%
♪ Are you washed in
the blood of the lamb

01:27:50.626 --> 01:27:54.476
- [Barbara] We understand
that, we're okay.

01:27:54.500 --> 01:27:56.975
♪ Are you washed are you washed

01:27:56.999 --> 01:27:58.975 position:20%
♪ In the blood in the blood

01:27:58.999 --> 01:28:00.852
♪ In the soul cleansing

01:28:00.876 --> 01:28:04.918
♪ Are your garments spotless

♪ Are you washed in

01:28:10.792 --> 01:28:13.209
- Okay we're on go here.

01:28:14.125 --> 01:28:16.209
(applauding)

01:28:17.209 --> 01:28:19.185
I'm Barbara Beavers,
and we are just

01:28:19.209 --> 01:28:21.268
so blessed to have
each of you here.

01:28:21.292 --> 01:28:23.518
We have a part to play
in ending abortion.

01:28:23.542 --> 01:28:27.101
The CPC can be there
when a young woman

01:28:27.125 --> 01:28:30.101 position:20%
finds out for the first
time that she's pregnant.

01:28:30.125 --> 01:28:32.792
She's terrified, and she's
dead set on having an abortion.

01:28:33.667 --> 01:28:37.226
And because of your investment

01:28:37.250 --> 01:28:38.935
that mother can make a decision

01:28:38.959 --> 01:28:40.042
to save the life of her child.

01:28:41.667 --> 01:28:42.667
We want to offer
hope to more women

01:28:45.292 --> 01:28:48.268
who are open to
receiving that hope.

01:28:48.292 --> 01:28:50.810
And the closer you
can get the CPC to

01:28:50.834 --> 01:28:52.560
the abortion clinic,
then the closer you can

01:28:52.584 --> 01:28:54.975
get a woman to choose
life for her child.

01:28:54.999 --> 01:28:57.602 position:20%
Having a place just
walking distance is huge.

01:28:57.626 --> 01:29:01.143
Because a lot of times
these women are dropped off.

01:29:01.167 --> 01:29:03.143
That's the greatest
need for the CPC to be

01:29:03.167 --> 01:29:06.435
as close as to that abortion
clinic as we can get it.

01:29:06.459 --> 01:29:09.976
Please consider how you
might partner with us

01:29:10.000 --> 01:29:12.975 position:20%
so that hand in hand through
the power of Jesus Christ

01:29:12.999 --> 01:29:16.999
we might walk through
those doors together.

01:29:17.459 --> 01:29:20.918
(applauding)

01:29:39.417 --> 01:29:42.975 position:20%
You take a flower, from me.

01:29:42.999 --> 01:29:45.685
- I was thinking
when you was talking.

01:29:45.709 --> 01:29:47.643
I want to come to the center
and help since I don't--

01:29:47.667 --> 01:29:49.935
- Okay, okay.

01:29:49.959 --> 01:29:50.999 position:20%
- Maybe tell my story too.

01:29:52.999 --> 01:29:54.584 position:20%
- Yeah, yeah, good, good.

01:29:55.792 --> 01:29:56.709
Oh bless you.

01:30:00.167 --> 01:30:03.876
Oh thank goodness, with that
all happening I was in favor.

01:30:05.999 --> 01:30:07.999
