The Women's National Abortion Action Coalition was formed at a conférence held at Columbia University, New York City, in July, 1971, which was attended by approximately 1,000 women from 29 states. The conference voted to make a woman's right to abortion a national and political issue. Subsequent to “its formation, the coalition called for demonstrations in 2 San Francisco and Washington on 11/20/71 to build public support for the Zz. repeal of all antiabortion laws, to protest forced sterilization, andto call ~ i for an end to restrictive contraceptive laws. A source of the Washington Field Office has advised that the march in Washington is supported by the : Young Socialist Alliance, the youth group of the Socialist Workers Party AC (SWP). Caroy/Aipman, who is a member of the SWP, is Project Director ~ of the Washington march. Coalition leaders in requesting permit for the demonstration have jestimated that participation in the Washington march will range between (10,000 and 20,000 persons. The Washington Field Office has developed information that 46 buses have been chartered to bring participants to the demonstration. Participants will represent some 80 cities.

Approximately 1,000 persons were in attendance at this convention which was held to determine future action of WONAAC and to allow diverse factions within the Woments Abortion Movement to join ranks under one issue, Female members of the Socialist Workers Party (SP and Young Socialist Alliance (€YSA) from all over the county were requested by the national office of the SWP amd YSA : to attend this convention in order to insure the effective control of the convention by the SWP, NEAR tO abewrsind Rel ANE «ACR a aRARaRt hava eaatbedan hist Were heehee teencesttton, a x I wrth nltian ible BE cae OPTRA LAS) sence. whik week ith ceo, As the youth organization of the Socialist wu Workers Party (SWP), the’ Young Sdcialist Alliance (7-3 (Y¥SA) serves as the main Soucze of recruitment into that organization. The YSA is described in the masthead of its official nubdlication, "The Young Socialist Organizer," as "A multi- national revolutionary socialist youth organi-~ gation," , ‘The SWP has been designated pursuant to Executive Order 10450, or AKA wrthet eS Exeluded from automatic downgrading and declassification Page 116
CONFIDENTIAL Re: WONAAC The SWP specifically wished the convention to adopt a one-issue position, that being the complete control of the female body by the individual female, This specific issue, "women control their bodies" was adopted by the women's organization and all other propo- sals were rejected, Workshops were organized for each of the many separate racial and ethnic groups represented at the conference, Workshops were based on appeal to the speci- fic group intended and all were supposedly controlled by the SWP, A Black, Raza, Asian-American women's workshop was held on February 12, 1972, with 35 persons attending. Among the issues discussed at the workshop were the attempts of democratic and republican presidential candi- dates to capitalize on minority group attitudes in regard to the abortion movament and the fact that minority groups all to often find themselves without a voice when real issues are involved, Of particular importance to the group was the La Raza Unida Party, a legitimate political party in Texas which serves to unite Mexican Americans, Of equal impor- tance was the Gay Liberation Movement, which the group felt expresses the plight of gay females who do not want children and are forced to live with men because of the mores of American society. Attendees agreed that the one issue of abortion. | i. law.repeal will serve-to unite-wonsn under-’one batner-and’ 7 et istt more effectively serve the VYonren's “ovenmant. The convention adjourned after an agreement that an "Abortion Action Week" would be held May 1 - 6, 1972, This action would serve to keep public attention focused on the need to legalize abortion and to seek effective support from the many thousands of women who want to right to choose, wee Rn ee Owe op ere ong mH RB i Li « . , . et, ayu fh toni GRZELE SE ~2- fos S508 Docld:32989545 Page ii?

It was noted during the conference that WONAAC had been unable to create anything like a national campaign and that local meetings ‘aeross the country had been disappointingly small. It was pointed out that WONAAC had failed to attract the large numbers of working women, housewives, and students concerned with the abortion issue, including the majority of women's liberationists and abortion reform activists.
