At the Intersection of Abortion Rights and Anti-Choice: A Quiet Street Corner Exemplifies an Intense Dispute (Young Feminists‪)‬

It's not easy being pro-choice. You are often met with opposition claiming you condone "murder" or challenging your moral or religious views. For service providers, it can be difficult to work in a setting that is the target of opposition--like a health clinic. The debate over whether a woman has a right to terminate her pregnancy (and at What point, and for what reasons) is one of the most controversial topics in reproductive and women's health. Almost 40 years after the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case legalized abortion, supporters on both sides continue to fight daily for their respective beliefs. One Saturday this summer, I was channel surfing and ran across the documentary 12th and Delaware. I pressed the remote's "information" button and became intrigued by the description of the film's plot about an abortion clinic and an anti-choice pregnancy "care" center located on the same street, directly across from one another. The documentary, directed by Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, debuted on HBO on August 2, 2010. It focuses on a real situation that exists in Fort Pierce, Florida, and showcases two opposing facilities: an abortion clinic called A Woman's World, and a crisis center called Pregnancy Care Center.
