> “Whipped Peter” lived as a slave in Louisiana before escaping in 1863. After 10 days of evading slave-hunters and their hounds, he came across a Union regiment, where he was granted sanctuary.
> 
> A doctor in the camp asked the poor fugitive to remove his shirt so he could conduct a medical examination. When Peter removed the tattered rags covering his frail body, the doctor gasped in horror.  
> 
> Nearly every inch of his back was covered in scars from years of vicious whippings.  
> 
> The doctor took a picture of this poor man – the same picture you now see in this email – and sent it to Harper’s Weekly, which quickly published it.
> 
> Before long, the image had spread across the country. Nearly every American saw for themselves how cruel slavery was.
> 
> One reporter described the picture as “a testimony against slavery more eloquent than any words” and that “none but hardened natures can look upon it unmoved.”  
> 
> This image was the final blow for slavery. Once the American people had seen with their own eyes how evil slavery was, there was no going back.
> 
> Now imagine if we could do the same thing with another great evil plaguing our nation: the brutal violence of abortion against the preborn.
> 
> That’s exactly what our team here at Live Action is doing...and I pray you will join us by becoming a Life Defender - one of our committed monthly donors - today.

> For far too long, Americans have ignored or do not know the dark truth about the killing of preborn children in our country.  
> 
> Not anymore.  
> 
> Live Action has developed a groundbreaking tool to give the American people an unfiltered look at the cruelty of abortion – just like how the picture of “Whipped Peter” forced Americans of the 19th Century to face the truth about slavery.
> 
> You may know of Live Action’s many bombshell investigations of Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry.
> 
> Over the years, our investigators have recorded hidden-camera footage of Planned Parenthood workers covering up the sexual abuse of children, showing a willingness to assist child sex traffickers, and worse.
> 
> We’ve also uncovered evidence that Planned Parenthood is lying about the services it provides women in order to justify the half a billion dollars it receives from taxpayers each year.
> 
> So far, our work has fueled the effort to defund Planned Parenthood in several key states, costing the abortion giant tens of millions of dollars and counting.
> 
> Some of our projects have even resulted in criminal investigations into Planned Parenthood, as well as probes from the Attorneys General of several states.
> 
> Even more importantly, footage from our investigations has been viewed by more than 100 million people, changing countless hearts and minds as we strive to build a culture of life.
> 
> But C. G., throughout our years of research and investigation of the abortion industry, one troubling fact has always stood out to me...
> 
> Most people – especially young Americans – have no clue just how violent, cruel, and barbaric abortion really is.
> 
> That’s because Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion groups have masked abortion in euphemisms. Instead of saying abortion is a violent act that destroys the life of a child, they say they are simply “terminating the pregnancy” or removing a “clump of cells.” And the growing baby inside the womb is only referred to as the “product of conception.”
> 
> Our team here at Live Action is tackling this problem head-on and exposing the truth about abortion in the same way the photo of “Whipped Peter” exposed the evils of slavery.
> 
> We teamed up with Dr. Anthony Levatino – a former abortionist turned pro-life champion – to create a series of videos called Abortion Procedures: What You Need to Know.
> 
> These videos expose the truth about what abortion really does to preborn babies. Using medically accurate animations, Dr. Levatino describes the various methods of abortion in honest detail.   
> 
> We created these videos because the abortion industry thrives on misinformation. Planned Parenthood knows that if women could see what abortion really is and looks like, more mothers would choose life for their babies.
> 
> We didn’t sensationalize or exaggerate abortion in these videos. They simply provide an unbiased account of what abortion is from a doctor who used to commit them.   
> 
> People who watch these videos will learn that a D&E abortion involves crushing the skull of a baby, but only after her limbs and spinal cord are violently torn from her body piece by piece.
> 
> They will learn that chemical abortions involve two drugs: one to starve the growing baby of precious nutrients for 72 hours until she dies, and another to induce maternal bleeding and force the dead baby out of the womb.

> These videos show medically accurate animations of what an abortion is really like. Theycut through the euphemisms that Planned Parenthood hides behind.
> 
> Caring people like you already understand how evil abortion is – that’s why you’re pro-life. But the truth is, most Americans – especially most young people – have no clue what abortion is really like. That’s why these videos are so badly needed.
> 
> To show just how powerful these videos can be, we took to the streets to show them to young people who support abortion.
> 
> One woman we interviewed said that she supported abortion all the way up to the moment before the child is born.  
> 
> We showed her the D&E Abortion Procedures video. She visibly winced and gasped as she watched Dr. Anthony Levatino describe the procedure.
> 
> When she finished watching the video, we asked her if she still supported abortion up until birth.
> 
> “No,” she told us.  “I don’t think I support it, period.”
> 
> What an astounding change of heart!
> 
> 
> This woman described herself as “pro-choice” before watching our D&E AbortionProcedures video.There was a horrified look on her face as she saw what an abortionreally looks like. She said this video completely changed her mind about abortion.
> She wasn’t the only one. We showed our videos to several other young people who described themselves as “pro-choice.” One person after the other told us that these videos changed their minds about abortion.

> Brutal. Inhumane. Heinous. Inhuman. Murder.  
> 
> These are the words used by these pro-abortion young adults to describe abortion after watching just one of our videos! You can watch these interviews for yourself by visiting our website.  
> 
> C. G., when I see how people change after learning the truth, it fills me with confidence that one day, if you and I persevere, we will live in a world free from the moral rot of abortion.
> 
> Just like how the picture of “Whipped Peter” turned Americans against slavery, our Abortion Procedures videos are turning Americans against abortion.
> 
> Ever since we released this powerful tool, I’ve received emails, Facebook messages, and letters from pregnant mothers who were considering abortion before they came across our videos.
> 
> These Abortion Procedures are literally saving lives! As mothers are faced with the cold reality of abortion, rather than Planned Parenthood’s sterile euphemisms, they are far more likely to choose life instead of death for their little ones. It’s been so encouraging to see this shift!
> 
> And unlike Planned Parenthood, we don’t have to resort to tricks, bullying, and lies to win people over. All we need is to show them the TRUTH.
> 
> These Abortion Procedures videos are a powerful tool...and now is the time to spread them to every corner of the country.
> 
> C. G., it’s not enough to share these videos with people who already agree with us. We need to reach:
> 
> Women who are considering abortion for their own preborn child
> People who support the status quo of Roe v. Wade simply because they haven’t given much thought to the issue of abortion, and
> Young people who are being fed Planned Parenthood’s lies
> Will you share these powerful videos with as many people as possible by committing to an ongoing monthly gift with Live Action and becoming a Life Defender?

> C. G., your support is needed for two reasons:
> 
> First, our team is planning a major research effort to determine the most effective way of sharing these videos with our fellow Americans.
> 
> Think of it this way: when a company wants to sell a new product, they hire experts to conduct surveys, assemble focus groups, and analyze internet traffic to determine the best way to reach their target audience.
> 
> This is exactly what we are going to do with these videos. Planned Parenthood spends millions of dollars each year on “market research” to determine the most effective way to spread their lies. It’s time to fight fire with fire.
> 
> Second, your support will allow us to place ads online that are targeted towards people who need to see these videos the most.
> 
> Imagine a young pregnant woman...scared and uncertain about the future. Her friends and family are telling her to get an abortion, but her heart is conflicted.
> 
> When she goes online to search for more information about abortion, what information will she receive – Planned Parenthood’s carefully crafted lies or the truth found in our Abortion Procedures videos?
> 
> The answer to that question depends largely on how pro-life people like you respond to this e-mail.  
> 
> Every dollar you give means we can reach an additional 34 people with our heart-changing content. That means that a recurring gift from you of $30 will put these new groundbreaking videos in front of 1,020 people every month.
> 
> Imagine the hundreds upon hundreds of preborn babies who will be saved from abortion thanks to your generosity!
> 
> And, of course, your support will allow us to continue exposing the abuses and corruption of the abortion industry through our groundbreaking investigative research.  
> 
> Live Action has built the largest social media and online network in the entire pro-life movement, reaching millions of Americans every day.
> 
> None of it would be possible without the sacrificial support of kind-hearted Americans like you.
