It seems that women aren't allowed to be women if they don't support abortion. Case in point: the Women's Center at the University of Arizona has now joined with the Planned Parenthood Club, encouraging students to fight for "reproductive justice." I'm assuming that doesn't mean justice for the unborn.
Campus Reform reports that Vox: Voices for Planned Parenthood hosts about 12 events per semester with the aim to “translate increased awareness of reproductive justice into pro-choice activism,” and promote “full-access” to abortion. Sedona Lynch, a junior majoring in Public Health and told Campus Reform:
“People should have the access to take care of their bodies. Whether they want to have any kids, whether they want one, or none. I want people to be able to have that option to decide what they want for their own bodies, to have their own autonomy." She continued, “Especially on a college campus, I think it's important to fight for reproductive justice because everyone here's trying to get an education. We're trying to be successful in life. Students should have the ability to make choices about their own bodies, whether it's getting birth control on campus…or Plan B.”
While Lynch avoided using the word "abortion," she was happy to say that the group supported Black Lives Matter and DACA Students. It is unclear what that has to do with "reproductive justice." The club receives funding from student government.
Last year, New Wave Feminists were set to be an event partner for the inaugural Women's March, but lost that status when it came to light that they were a pro-life women's organization. While feminist groups are all about intersectionality, the idea that a woman might intersect with pro-life values is decidedly unwelcome among them. University of Arizona is just another example in a very long list.
