By Sonja Morin, Catholic East Texas - I was at the Women’s March for Reproductive Rights in Washington, D.C., attempting to puncture the violent shouts with the truth of human life. The atmosphere was enraged, but barely masked deeper wounds that lay beneath. That day, I came in contact with people who had experienced abortion, those who had been sexually assaulted, those who had been in one way or another forced into this issue that continues to plague our communities daily. Their shouts and signs all came down to the same thing: “How can you call yourself pro-life if you don’t respect others?”
