Mall Kiosks Ideal for Continual Pro-life Education

The following is a wonderfully thoughtful story about a new way to educate the public written by NRLC's Holly Smith.

If you've ever walked through your local mall, you've likely had your picture taken and seen it instantly appear on a t-shirt, hat or poster, surrounded by graphics. This was made possible courtesy of a young person trying to earn money for a car or college by working at the photo kiosk.

Just as likely, you walked right by, not giving it a second thought.

Now imagine walking through your mall and instead of seeing you and your family or friends in the kiosk's television screen, you see beautiful 4D ultrasound images of unborn babies, full of life in their mothers' wombs. Not only would it interrupt your train of thought, you would probably stop to watch it for a few minutes and it would move you.


The innocence of unborn babies and the amazing technology that allows us to see them at once at their most vulnerable, and at the same time, the most safe and sound they'll ever be, and needless to say, cute as can be. All those thoughts flood the mind at once and one cannot help but be moved.

Mike and Maureen Nuzzi of Atco, New Jersey are counting on the impact of 4D ultrasound videos to awaken and educate their community about the humanity of the unborn child.

"Nothing speaks like the truth, and it cannot be hidden for long. We must use technology to give these babies a face and identity. The Civil Rights Movement and our response to photos when there is a famine or natural disaster show the power of pictures, and now we have vivid ones," explained Mike.

In order to bring beautiful images of unborn babies to the masses, the Nuzzis rented a kiosk near some of the clothing stores for young women at their local shopping mall and set up what they call a "Truthbooth." Basically, the "truthbooth" consists of two 19" TVs showing a 4-D ultrasound of a healthy baby in the womb…without comment. No money is collected, and nothing is sold.

However, there is literature available on where to get an ultrasound, help for crisis pregnancies and post-abortion help. Brochures explaining 4D ultrasound technology are also available. Volunteers are there to answer questions.

According to Mike, "This idea saves babies and women, and changes minds without being confrontational. It's where young people are, and helps them make decisions before they are sweating bullets."

In terms of what videos to show, the "Truthbooth" uses a 4D clip sent by GE, along with Shari Richard's images used with permission. She is producing a new DVD as technology has improved so much since her groundbreaking "Window to the Womb" and "Miracle of Life" videos.

National Geographic's "In the Womb" is an amazing video and is on sale here.

  1. Oooooh, PP and NARAL are steaming! Is there any way we can capture that heat and use it to replace costly gasoline?
