Example sentences for: gorney
How can you use “gorney” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
"This was women's business," is how Gorney describes Widdicombe's thinking about what she does.
Gorney gives us a fascinating glimpse, for example, of the involvement of the clergy in helping women obtain illegal abortions in the late '60s.
Moreover, Gorney ends her book in 1989, with the Supreme Court ruling in Webster . This is hard to justify since the decision marked neither the culmination of the court's thinking on abortion (the Casey ruling in 1992 was at least as influential) nor an obvious turning point in the abortion wars.
(Gorney introduces us to hundreds of other activists, but it is Widdicombe and Lee who propel the narrative.)
Since Widdicombe is apparently so much less given to moral casuistry than Lee, Gorney sometimes risks leaving us with a vague impression of abortion-rights activists as tough pragmatists at a loss for loftier arguments, and anti-abortion activists as philosophers with a common touch.
