1. Point/Counterpoint: The Abortion Story
2 years ago
In 2006, South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds signed a bill that banned nearly all abortions in the state, legislation in direct conflict with the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion in 1973. For approximately 20 years, the Conservative Movement has implemented a concerted effort to weaken and eventually decimate a woman’s right to choose. What will life be like if the Roe v. Wade decision is overturned?

This was the impetus for this documentary film which explores the lives of women who undertook abortions between the mid-1940s and late-1960s. These courageous women candidly explain their life-threatening experiences with obtaining illegal abortions. In contrast, the film probes into the pro-life movement in Marion County, Florida, which offers an alternative view point. The first film created by Chyrisse P. Tabone provides a thought-provoking and raw look into the sensitive and politically-charged issue of abortion.
