Ongoing Protests Against Polish Abortion Ban Draw 150,000 People to Streets of Warsaw
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Poland, an estimated 150,000 people rallied in Warsaw Friday to
protest against a court decision banning nearly all forms of abortion.
The protests were the biggest since the Solidarity movement of the
1980s.

Kasia Kowalska: "I am a woman. I am a mother. I have a daughter. And I
think I am here not only for myself but also for my daughter, so that
she can live in better times. I want the best for her and for everyone.
I think it's important for everyone who lives in Poland."
