The Real Story Behind Kristan Hawkins' Viral Face-Offs With Pro-Choice Students

Billy Hallowell : Apr 8, 2025  Faithwire

"It is completely out of the realm of possibility at this moment in 2025 America, except for a miracle from God Almighty, which is always possible, that you would see a complete end of all abortion. Even if you pass a law ending all abortions ... abortions would still happen because culture is not there. That is why we always say in the pro-life movement, ending abortion is twofold. It's making abortion unavailable, illegal, putting the ... abortion cartel out of business, but it's also ... for young women across America to start thinking of abortion as an antiquated, regressive idea." -Kristan Hawkins, Students For Life

"It really inspired me in so many ways and in my pro-life activism, because I was raised in an evangelical home," Hawkins said. "Entering that pregnancy center, starting to volunteer, meeting the women—I had a unique opportunity to become a counselor very early."

Hawkins said she saw many women coming to the center who were desperate and had no one else to talk to—something that wasn't lost on her.

Years later, she's leading Students for Life of America and starting meaningful conversations to try and help people properly understand the pro-life cause.

Many of Hawkins' interactions with pro-choice students have gone viral as she makes compelling cases against abortion.

"I have a unique gift of not being afraid to have people scream at me—not be afraid to get yelled at on campus, and to say what I'm actually thinking," she said. "And in this day and age on social media, that does really well."

These videos help educate people about the issues surrounding abortion, and, according to Hawkins, have also helped save unborn babies' lives.

"I've gotten to meet several babies that have been saved because their mom saw the video," she said. "I just always think of it as such a great testament of hope how God can use all of us, and, whatever our skillset or strengths may be, He can put it to work for his kingdom."

Many of these videos call out "illogical positions" and try to help people see more clearly.

But Hawkins isn't only battling those on the pro-choice side, as she detailed the battle that often unfolds even within the pro-life movement—a back-and-forth over whether the key fight should be making abortion illegal or, instead, taking incremental steps to stop it.

Of particular note, some critics have said Hawkins is wrong to paint women as victims when it comes to abortion. Some said Hawkins even has "blood on her hands" for taking the positions she does on abortion.

"Our mission at Students For Life has to been abolish abortion since I launched in 2006," she said, noting another organization has been focused on what she called "abolition." "The concept was that they wanted to mimic the slavery abolitionists, that they wanted to ... simply [try] to pass laws."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
