Feminists for Life
Feminists for Life of America (FFL) is a non-profit, pro-life feminist, non-governmental organization (NGO).〔("List of NGOs in consultative status with the Economic and Social Council as of 18 September 2008" ), UN Economic and Social Council〕 Established in 1972 and now based in Alexandria, Virginia, the organization describes itself as "shaped by the core feminist values of justice, nondiscrimination, and nonviolence". FFL is dedicated to "systematically eliminating the root causes that drive women to abortion—primarily lack of practical resources and support—through holistic, woman-centered solutions".
FFL publishes a quarterly magazine, ''The American Feminist'', and aims to reach young women, college students in particular.
Feminists for Life professes to "stand on more than two hundred years of pro-life feminist history", continuing a tradition of nineteenth-century American feminists such as Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton.〔''The American Feminist'' vol. 12 no. 1, p. 5〕 This position has been challenged by critics who question comparisons between 19th and 20th century views on abortion, as well as the attribution of certain quotations to Anthony.
==Origins==
Feminists for Life was founded by Pat Goltz and Cathy Callaghan in Ohio in 1972. Goltz and Callaghan met in a judo club on the campus of Ohio State University, where Callaghan was a tenured professor of linguistics. In 1974, Goltz was expelled from the Columbus, Ohio chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) for arguing that abortion violated feminist principles,〔(Dennis Doyle, "Catholic Social Teaching and Movements", ''The Church Emerging from Vatican II: A Popular Approach to Contemporary Catholicism'' (1992), p.212. )〕 although she and Callaghan were not expelled from national NOW membership.
