Press Release: Statement of the National Organization for Women President Kim Gandy, November 5, 2003.

I am marching to protect a woman's fundamental right to make very private and personal decisions regarding her own body, her own life, and her own destiny. I am marching because I am outraged that George W. Bush and other (mostly male) politicians in Washington think they have the right to force a woman to carry a pregnancy and bear a child against her own will. I am marching because I do not ever want to return to the day of dangerous, back-alley abortions.

In a time of fervent patriotism, we need to remember that FREEDOM IS CHOICE and that curtailments of human rights and basic freedoms are the marks of a dictatorship, not a democracy.
