Re: Abortion and Racism "Evil Twins," Martin Luther King Jr’s. Niece Says

"By the abortion industry’s own statistics, black women are 4.8 times more likely to abort than are non-Hispanic white women. Blacks comprise about 13% of the population, yet have 37% of all abortions."

Tying racisim with abortion is very tenuous. Black women also have MORE children out of wedlock. Black teenager mothers also comprise a large majority of the teen mother population.

Having to drop out of high school to become a mother, plunges both child and mother into poverty that few are able to climb out of.

I would call those black women who chose abortion over unwanted pregnancy brave, not victims of racism. They took control over their bodies and lives and chose not to raise a child in poverty. Tweet
