Harvard Law debate confronts abortion levels among blacks

CAMBRIDGE – A discussion at Harvard Law School on Tuesday featured a black, pro-life activist talking about the disproportionate rate of abortions within the black community – what could possibly go wrong?

"There is certainly pro-life and pro-choice rhetoric underlying the issue," law student Chase Giacomo, president of Harvard Law Students for Life, said at the beginning of the discussion on the Harvard University campus. "But we're really here today to talk about the disproportionate ratio of abortions in the black community."

Begin your summer mornings right by waking up in an urban retreat 12 stories above the hustle and bustle of downtown Boston.

For a limited time, the Colonnade Hotel, located 120 Huntington Ave, is hosting weekly summer yoga classes. This is the second summer that the Colonnade has offered roof-top yoga.

Open to the public, the newly re-designed roof-top pool invites beginner and experienced yogis to experience sun salutations, body-strengthening exercises, and meditation, topped off with the first rays of morning sun warming the pool deck.

To take part in the Wednesday classes, Yoga enthusiasts need simply sign up 24 hours in advance and pay the $15 fee.
