Mass Protest Decries Bush Abortion
Policies群众抗议谴责布什的堕胎政策 by
Deborah Zabarenko WASHINGTON (Reuters)—Protesters crowded
the National Mall on Sunday to show support for abortion rights and opposition
to Bush administration policies on women's health issues in one of the biggest
demonstrations in US history. There was no official crowd
count, but organizers claimed more than 1 million people participateD.
Pink-and purple-shirted protesters raised signs reading "Fight the Radical
Right", "Keep Abortion Legal" and "US Out Of My Uterus" and covered the Mall
from the foot of Capitol Hill to the base of the Washington Monument.
Speakers ranged from actresses Whoopi Goldberg, Ashley Judd and Kathleen
Turner to philanthropist Ted Turner, feminist icon Gloria Steinem and former
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. Goldberg raised a wire
coat hanger—a symbol of illegal abortions in the days before the Supreme Court's
1973 Roe vs. Wade ruling recognizing abortion rights—and told the crowd, "We are
one vote away from going back to this!" She was referring to
the nine-member high court, which has frequently decided abortion- related cases
on a five-four vote. The abortion issue was the centerpiece of
the march's broad protest against the policies of President Bush, including his
stance on funding international family planning. No US funds may be used for any
family planning agency that mentions abortion to patients.
"Vote That Smirk Out of Office," was a characteristically political
placard targeting Bush, but Dorothy Smith, 76, of Eldridge, Missouri, carried an
emblem she made herself—a wire coat hanger draped with a sign reading "Never
Again. " "I can remember when abortion was just as common as it
is now, but it killed a lot of women," Smith saiD. Major
sponsors included stalwarts of the abortion rights movement______NARAL
Pro-Choice America, Feminist Majority, National Organization for Women, Planned
Parenthood Federation of America—as well as the American Civil Liberties Union,
the Black Women's Health Imperative and the National Latina Institute for
Reproductive Health. Some 1,400 groups attended the event,
including an international contingent with marchers from 57 countries. There
were medical students who carried signs saying they planned to be the next
generation of abortion providers, and there was a Texas group marching behind a
banner that read, "Old Broads for Choice. " As the march wound
from the Mall toward the White House and then turned onto Pennsylvania Avenue
and toward Capitol Hill, abortion rights groups encountered antiabortion
protesters. These protesters carried posters showing
photographs of fetuses at eight weeks gestation and signs reading "Abortion
kills Babies. " March organizers claimed double the turnout of
the last big abortion rights march in 1992, which drew 500,000, according to the
US Park Police, who no longer gives official crowd counts. The biggest
demonstration was an anti-Vietnam War rally in 1969, which drew 600,000. The
largest gathering on the National Mall was the 1976 US bicentennial celebration.
Though the march was billed as nonpartisan and included a
contingent called Republicans for Choice, much of the day's rhetoric was plainly
aimed at Bush, a Republican who opposes abortion in most cases.
Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry vowed on Friday to champion
abortion rights if electeD.He received the endorsement of Planned Parenthood's
Action Fund, the organization's political fund-raising ann.
Neither Bush nor Kerry attended the march, but US Sen. Hillary Rodham
Cfinton, a New York Democrat and former first lady, drew roars of approval when
she exhorted the crowd to register to vote. Volunteers were on hand to register
new voters. Bush addressed an anti-abortion march in January,
saying the effort to overturn the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which
recognized a right to abortion, was "noble cause. "
