Pro-Life leader questions need for diversity

Please watch the following video, which features incoming NOW President Terry, along with Elisabeth Crum, who was on the Young Feminist Task Force workshop with me at the NOW National Conference in Indiana.

I am so glad Operation Rescue's leader questions the need for diversity in Supreme Court. This just proves how ridiculous that Pro-Life group's argument is. He is clearly racist, as many of those people are.
