| Rae D'Orazio Stabosz is the Associate Director of the Foreign Language Media Center at the University of Delaware; she is also a writer, film buff, poet and mother of nine. She has worked in computer-based media for twenty-five years and is co-founder and president of Blue Chip Computing, Inc. She has an abiding interest in justice and media and is a member of Delaware Citizens Opposed to the Death Penalty, Cine&Media (the US affiliate of the International Catholic Association for Cinema), and Delaware Pacem in Terris. She is a former pro-choice advocate who admits that it was not rational argument that turned her to a pro-life point of view. Rather, her POV changed dramatically the moment she held in her arms an infant she had previously tried to help abort. Contact her at [email protected] . |

| A STATEMENT ON VIOLENCE:
The creators of livefreecritique.org -- although predominantly of a pro-life persuasion -- hope that the site will stand on its own as a critique of a film that harms both sides of the public discourse on abortion. They stand firm in their rejection of violence as an acceptable solution to any of the issues fought so passionately by warriors on both sides of the "abortion wars". Ms. Stabosz and Ms. Clark believe that the best chance of a mutually desirable end of the "abortion wars" rests in two key approaches: 1) the following of one's individual conscience by means of activism that is ethical and that respects the opposing POV and its adherents, and 2) a serious effort on both sides to change the structures that allow the violence of abortion to subvert the peace that ought to exist, in a just and balanced society, between a woman and her offspring. |
