With all the slimy morals and leftist propagandizing in our popular culture, it’s easy to overlook entertainment’s more positive influences. On January 10, pro-abortion activist Eleanor Bader wrote a blog post for RH Reality Check that shouldn’t go unnoticed, both for bringing several examples to our attention and for illustrating the radical response. Bader highlights the following Christian and pro-life celebrity activists: Bella star Eduardo Verastegui, Christian band Barlow Girl, Skillet lead singer John Cooper, and Josh Wilson of Christian band Silverline. None of these names are as big as, say, Bono or Miley Cyrus, but they’re all successful and...

 Amnesty International, which formally announced two weeks ago a new worldwide policy backing women's right to abortion in some cases, is being charged with having "duped" pro-life pop stars who contributed their time and talents to a CD released to raise money by the anti-torture group for victims of violence in Darfur. "The human suffering going on right now in Darfur is horrific," said Erik Whittington, American Life League's youth outreach director and director of Rock for Life, an organization of anti-abortion musicians. "To add insult to injury, however, using this tragic abuse of human rights to raise money for...

My longtime friend Judie Brown is like a junkyard dog. She is one of the most tenacious and innovative pro-life warriors on the face of the earth today – a genuine hero of our movement. And so it is that, once again, Judy and her teams at American Life League, or ALL, and Rock for Life have conceived an excellent plan to call attention to our national abortion holocaust. It is called the Pro-life Memorial Day, and it is designed to make known to Americans the fact that abortion has terminated the lives of 46 million preborn babies. You know,...

WASHINGTON, June 24 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Today, American Life League's Crusade for the Defense of Our Catholic Church is releasing its newest ad -- a response to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' statement on dealing with pro- abortion Catholic public figures. That statement sidestepped the necessity to enforce Church law regarding reception of Holy Communion by pro-abortion public figures who claim the Catholic faith. "By refusing to enforce Church law, the bishops' conference has in effect said that either the Holy Eucharist is not all that good, or abortion is not all that bad," said Judie Brown, president...

McCarrickAbortion Foes Target Cardinal McCarrick Abortion Foes Target Cardinal McCarrick Friday May 07, 2004 3:16pm  Washington (AP) - The Archbishop of Washington is under attack from an anti-abortion group. American Life League is upset that Cardinal Theodore McCarrick is reluctant to deny Communion to Roman Catholic politicians who support abortion rights. So they've taken out ads which read, "You can't be both Catholic and pro-abortion!" The Stafford, Virginia-based group ran the ad in Thursday's Washington Times, and plans to put it in a Catholic weekly. McCarrick is the spiritual leader of more than half-million Catholics in D.C. and suburban Maryland....

national anti-abortion group is upset that a Spotsylvania County school principal ordered students to remove their anti-abortion T-shirts. Erik Whittington, co-founder of Rock for Life, says a 14-year-old Spotsylvania County middle school student was initially permitted to wear the shirt on Tuesday, a day the group had chosen for its "National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day" campaign. The girl also distributed about 40 of the shirts at Battlefield Middle School. The shirt features a picture of a four-month-old fetus in the womb, along with the words, "Do you 'really' believe this isn't a baby?" The shirt also reads, "Abortion is homicide." Rock...

American Life League's Rock for Life, the nation's premier pro- life youth organization, will host its annual week of training and activism beginning tomorrow, Wednesday, Jan. 21, through Thursday, Jan. 22. Rock for Life's mission is to educate, activate, mobilize and unite the youth of our nation to fight the Culture of Death. "The young people of this nation-31 years old and younger-are under direct assault by the likes of Planned Parenthood, NOW and NARAL, as well as by foolish policies from the FDA," said Jason Jones, director of American Life League's youth outreach. "It will be this generation, through...

<p>TEED OFF: A pro-life message equals a Nazi symbol? That's the reasoning of the principal of Abington Junior High School in Pennsylvania, who banned a T-shirt worn by one of his honor students. It read as follows: "Abortion is homicide. You will not silence my message. You will not mock my God. You will stop killing my generation. Rock for life." According to the Thomas More Law Center, the principal told the boy's mother that the message on her son's shirt was equivalent to a swastika, which he would also forbid. But after a letter from the center raising the possibility of legal action, the school has now agreed that the student "has a First Amendment right to wear the pro-life shirt."</p>

Rock For Life, America's premier pro-life youth organization, is proud to announce that today, Monday, April 28, 2003 will be its first-ever National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day, when all pro-life students are encouraged to exercise their First Amendment right of free speech by wearing a pro-life T-shirt to school. "The idea to hold a National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day was inspired by the continued discrimination against pro-life students around the country," said Rock For Life's Sara McKalips. "These young men and women were not protesting, they were not being confrontational, they were simply wearing one of their favorite T-shirts to class and...

Washington, D.C. More than 200 pro-life youth from across the country gathered in the nation's capital Monday to begin three days of prayer rallies and peaceful protests centered around the 30th anniversary of the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion during all nine months of pregnancy. "It's wrong to kill children in the womb. They are human beings, and they have souls that are very precious to God," said Therese Nazar, a teen from La Crosse, Wis. "They have a right to live." The group gathered on a public sidewalk across the street from one of the Planned...
