Rap Artist Resisted Abortion, Promotes Life At Grammy Awards
Singer/songwriter Lauryn Hill, who won five Grammy awards for her album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, shed some light on the pressures of crisis pregnancy during a performance of her song "To Zion" at the Grammy awards this year. The song speaks of Hill's decision to give birth despite pressure from her handlers to have an abortion when she became pregnant.

The rap artist also said in an interview, "The song that touches me most is the one about my son . . . what began as something dark became the brightest and most important thing to me." Excerpts from the interview and lyrics to the song can be found at at www.lauryn-hill.com.
 

Clinic Guard Says Men Aggressive in Pushing for Abortion
Richard Seron, an abortion clinic security guard who was wounded by John Salvi during an abortion clinic shooting in December 1994, recently testified before the Massachusetts state legislature against clinic "buffer zones," saying women face more danger at abortion clinics from their partners than from pro-lifers.

Seron noted that he had "stood toe-to-toe with Operation Rescue" during his three months at the clinic and never found their behavior objectionable, adding that "the right to choose includes the right to say 'no' at the last minute." He also said that the group he considered most likely to become aggressive were the men who accompanied their partners to abortion clinics.
