Ms. Rose told the group about her very initial encounter with the gruesome reality of abortion, which she had at just nine years old. She explained the importance of youth outreach and the use of social media to educate others about abortion, and described her first undercover investigation of Planned Parenthood. Towards the end of the program, the first minutes of a video depicting Planned Parenthood’s willingness to cooperate with those who traffic young girlswere shown, impelling a shocked silence from the crowd. At the conclusion of her speech, Ms. Rose received a standing ovation from the hundreds of attendees.
