The annual anti-abortion March for Life in Washington, D.C., is both inspiring and depressing. Perennially ignored despite drawing crowds larger than last year's much-lauded D.C. Women's March, it has become, journalistically speaking, a quaint sideshow, its existence acknowledged, if at all, only by avowedly right-wing publications. Without demeaning the sacrifice of good-natured participants, I would like to confess that I find myself baffled by the march. What are those of us who oppose what we consider judicially sponsored infanticide hoping to accomplish by busing in church youth groups by the thousands in order to wave signs in front of locals who regard them with undisguised contempt?
