Fifty years ago, out of one of the darkest moments in American history, a nationwide movement was born. A year to the day after Roe v. Wade wiped out protections for nascent life in every state, 20,000 Americans spearheaded by Nellie Gray held the first March for Life to send a message to Washington, D.C.: Uphold life, the first of human rights.
