What People are Saying…

“Words fail us in the age of pictures. Logical arguments are okay, but GAP is visceral… I used to present endless logical arguments against abortion in the hope of changing minds. The week you were here I realized that may not be the best way.”

Chris Clemens, Ph.D., Assoc. Professor of Physics & Astronomy, University of North Carolina

“Throughout the next few days, I prayed and prayed and prayed. I hadn’t prayed once since I came to the University. Through prayer, I came to realize that why I was so upset and angry about the GAP display was not because I hated the [GAP people]. I hated abortion. I knew I had to get involved. I knew it was my moral obligation to speak up for the unborn. I am now a GAP volunteer.”

J. L., Student, University of Calgary

“A client came to us on March 27th for a pregnancy test. Her test was positive and she was leaning toward aborting her child because she was afraid. On April 14th when we called to check on her, she said that she had decided to carry her child. Many months later she told me that she had seen the GAP display on campus during the time she had been deciding whether or not to abort. She said the pictures had a profound impact on her.”

Carol Phillips, Director, Centre Region (Pennsylvania) CPC

Abortion Debate on Campus

The Genocide Awareness Project (GAP) is a traveling photo-mural exhibit that compares the contemporary genocide of abortion to historically recognized forms of genocide. We visit university campuses around the country to show as many students as possible what abortion actually does to unborn children to encourage them to think about abortion in a broader historical context. In addition to the photo-murals, we also hand out thousands of this convincing brochure that explains the genocide comparison in detail.

Studies show that although most students come to college pro-life, a huge percentage change their minds and consider themselves pro-choice by the time they graduate. College students are at the age where they are experiencing an abundance of freedom without the benefit of accountability. They are extremely abortion-vulnerable. So, the college campus is a great place to intercept them and give them facts about abortion before they make up their minds.

By placing abortion images alongside traditionally recognized forms of oppression and subjugation, we are expanding the context in which people think about abortion. Throughout history, we as a society have a sad legacy of dehumanizing those who get in our way or have something we want. And once dehumanized it becomes very easy to justify mistreatment and destruction. Such is often the plight of the unborn child.

The college campus is an incredible place to educate our nation's young people about abortion. Throughout history, our centers of learning have been seen as a "marketplace of ideas," where students are taught to think freely. What better place than this to encourage our young people to look beyond what culture tells them about abortion? What better place to show them the truth?
