Years ago I followed an email list for parents of children with disabilities. A member of that group started the Silver Ribbon Campaign in the late 1990s. It included this tagline:
Consider this silver ribbon a special gift. Please wear it to promote the awareness and support of children with disabilities.
Yesterday, on the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, I found this on the site maintained by the Reproductive Coalition for Reproductive Choice website:
Join the Silver Ribbon Campaign – Wear A Silver Ribbon January 22-February 22 to Stand in Solidarity for Reproductive Rights and Justice.
In case you had any doubts, these ‘religious’ leaders support the practice of abortion. And you know what that means for unborn children with disabilities.
It just made me want to cry. Of all the colors the pro-abortion marketers had to choose, why that one?
I am tempted to a cynical thought that it was intentional, but I’m sure that isn’t the case.
The Silver Ribbon Campaign for children with disabilities never really took off here, but I would occasionally see a ribbon that looked silver or grey. And that would make me smile.
Now, that symbol has been connected with the destruction of those same children.
