Cecile Richards, who oversaw about 3.8 million unborn babies’ abortion deaths at Planned Parenthood, will speak at a Catholic university Thursday in California.
Richards, described as “a national leader for women’s rights and social and economic justice” by the school, actually is an abortion activist who has repeatedly fought against the Catholic Church and its teachings about the sanctity of human life.
But her life-destroying work did not keep the Dominican University of California from adding Richards to its spring lecture series.
California Catholic Daily reports:
Cecile Richards, a national leader for women’s rights and social and economic justice, has been added to the Institute for Leadership Studies (ILS) 2018 Spring Leadership Lecture Series at Dominican University of California. …
The speaker series, a cooperative effort between Dominican’s Institute for Leadership Studies and Book Passage, features some of the country’s leading figures from the worlds of business, politics, entertainment, academia, and literature. The series has entertained and educated thousands of Marin County and San Francisco Bay Area residents for the past 14 years.
She is scheduled to speak Thursday about her new memoir, “Make Trouble: Standing Up, Speaking Out, and Finding the Courage to Lead – My Life Story.”
Richards is the outgoing president of Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion business in America. During her tenure, the highly paid “non-profit” CEO oversaw the abortion deaths of approximately 3.8 million unborn babies.
Specific to religious liberty, Richards led the abortion chain in attacking conscience protection rights for Catholics and other religious individuals and even trying to force a group of nuns to pay for drugs that may cause abortions.

Under Richards’ leadership, Planned Parenthood saw huge drops in patient numbers and actual health services and scandal after scandal involving aborted baby body parts trafficking, sexual abuse cover-ups and Medicaid fraud.
At the same time, the abortion chain reaped in record profits, including billions in taxpayer funding, and maintained a corner on the American abortion market. It increased its political advocacy and attacked numerous efforts to protect unborn and born babies from abortion.
Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion business in America, aborting approximately 320,000 unborn babies every year. Its most recent annual report showed a record income of $1.46 billion, with about half a billion dollars coming from taxpayers.
In December, the U.S. Department of Justice said it is investigating whether the abortion chain illegally sold aborted baby body parts.
Richards announced her resignation in January.
