September 2020 – Article 1:
It’s a never-ending horror story that just keeps getting worse. Increasingly, the most dangerous place for a black child in Georgia is her mother’s womb.
African-American women make up about one third of the state’s female population, but account for 63% of all abortions in the state. By contrast, white women, who make up almost two thirds of all females, are responsible for 21% of all abortions.
The percentage of black abortions in Georgia reflects the nationwide situation as African-Americans are five times more likely to have an abortion than white women.
That tragedy has resulted in the loss of more than 20 million black lives, greater than the entire black population in 1960.
Abortion Leading Cause of Death
In fact, abortion is the leading cause of death for African-Americans—more than all other causes combined, including: AIDS, violent crime, accidents, cancer, and heart disease. The most glaring example is New York City where more black babies are aborted than born.
The roots of this horrendous situation are directly linked to Planned Parenthood and its racist founder, Margaret Sanger.
An ardent eugenicist, Sanger’s goal was to allegedly protect American society by reducing the number of so-called “undesirables.”
Margaret Sanger a Eugenicist
In her 1922 book The Pivot of Civilization, Sanger wrote “Eugenics suggests the re-establishment of the balance between the ‘fit’ and the ‘unfit.’ The birth rate among the…finer stocks of humanity is to be increased by awakening among the ‘fit’ the realization of the dangers of a lessened birth-rate in proportion to the reckless breeding of the ‘unfit.’
Claiming America needed to “breed a race of thoroughbreds,” Sanger said her plan would improve society by breeding “…out of the race the scourges of transmissible disease, mental defect, poverty, crime…” and prevent them from “breeding like weeds.”
She also was adamant that helping the less fortunate was wrong. Sanger argued against the “cruelty of charity,” claiming such efforts were the “…surest sign that our civilization has bred, is breeding, and is perpetuating constantly increasing numbers of defectives, delinquents, and dependents.”
Goal to Restrict or Exterminate the Black Population?
In 1939, her twisted thinking resulted in the “Negro Project.” The aim of the program was to restrict—many believe exterminate—the black population.
Sanger cleverly implemented the plan by courting black religious and civic leaders who were used to convince African-Americans that the program would improve their lives through abortion, sterilization, and contraception.
“More children from the fit, less from the unfit,” she said. “That is the chief issue of birth control.”
To ensure accomplishing her goal, Planned Parenthood intentionally targeted minority communities, and that insidious plan continues today. Nearly 80 percent of the organization’s facilities are located near African-American and Hispanic communities, with 45 percent within walking distance.
Disproportionate Number of Black Abortions
Black women in Georgia ended the lives of 19,277 precious children in 2019, an increase of 3,709 over the previous year’s total. By contrast, 6,290 white children were brutally killed during the same time, an increase of 576 over 2018.
Accounting for all races, there were 30,656 abortions in Georgia in 2019, compared to 28,544 in 2018.
Planned Parenthood and the rest of the abortion industry employ sophisticated advertising campaigns to brainwash women into believing that abortion is a healthcare right. It’s not. It’s a diabolical scheme to limit the number of precious black children who should be welcomed into the world.
Churches, especially predominately black churches, need to help put an end to this holocaust. Please encourage your pastor or priest to make the focus on this issue a priority.
