Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, released this statement today, commenting on the new documentary featuring Norma McCorvey.

“Norma always spoke with passion about her pro-life convictions, which represented a huge and public shift from how she had been seen for so long. I believe the woman that I personally knew who lived a painful and complicated life, but spoke directly about how she felt about it. And I also don’t believe that Fx is a good actor, when you consider that earlier this year, they went after the iconic Phyllis Schlafly. Tearing down pro-life champions won’t work for those of us who have had the privilege of knowing the real people behind the headlines.”

Kristan Hawkins had previously met Norma McCorvey.

Pro-lifers have been criticizing FX and the documentary for falsely portraying McCorvey as someone who wasn’t really pro-life.
