John—
When I came into NARAL seven years ago, the question I got asked the most was “how are we still fighting these fights?” Especially since we know that a vast majority of Americans support reproductive freedom.
I set out to find an answer, and what I learned could fill a book! In fact, it did.
Which is why I wrote The Lie That Binds — to share the truth behind the origins of the anti-choice movement, expose its historical lack of support, and reveal its calculated use of disinformation to mislead the public.
Pre-order The Lie That Binds not only to learn about the insidious ways in which the Radical Right has inflated its support, but to combat its persistent lies by claiming your place among the 7 in 10 who support reproductive freedom.
The book unpacks how, for decades, a vocal minority has methodically been able to move an unpopular, undemocratic agenda by using abortion as the tip of the spear and frightening the majority into silence.
But there’s more — the political history of the Radical Right has always been one designed to maintain white male privilege in the face of a changing world. They gambled that by using abortion, they could silence the majority who want to see racial and gender equity advance.
We have more voices. They make more noise. And they’ve used that advantage to falsely claim public support and force their attacks on our freedoms into law.
It’s long past time to reclaim the narrative that is rightfully ours.
We know the story anti-choice activists and lawmakers want to tell — a story where women suffer and our fundamental freedoms are trampled. Where a conservative bloc of Supreme Court justices determines whether our bodies are ours to control.
We have the power to prevent that reality — to tell a story in which our rights aren’t up for debate. Because this isn’t a debate. We are the 7 in 10, and we need to act like it.
Fuel the movement for reproductive freedom by pre-ordering a copy of The Lie That Binds and equip yourself with the knowledge needed to combat anti-choice disinformation.
PRE-ORDER NOW
Anti-choice, anti-freedom extremists want us to feel alone. They want us unsure of where our neighbors stand on abortion so that we remain silent, too scared to even ask. The Lie That Binds is a rallying cry — a reminder that we are the majority.
And we must be proud of our commitment to freedom.
Be a proud member of the 7 in 10. Pre-order a copy of The Lie That Binds today.
Sincerely,
 Ilyse Hogue President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
