I don’t believe it’s unreasonable to presume that many of the people demonstrating against the Supreme Court draft decision on abortion also participate in protests under the banner of Black Lives Matter. A closer investigation of abortions and racism may be helpful.
Blacks and Hispanics combined make up less than 30% of America’s population, yet over 55% of abortions are performed on these groups.
Planned Parenthood is savvy in knowing its clientele and where they live. Almost 80% of Planned Parenthood clinics are located within walking distance of poor minority neighborhoods. The center in Pittsburgh is located in a census tract with over 21% minority population while Allegheny County is around 13%. It is much worse in cities like Houston, Chicago and Baltimore. In Philadelphia, there are three times the percentage of Blacks and Hispanics within a 2-mile walking distance of the clinic than in the county as a whole.
“Protectingblacklife.org” can elaborate on these statistics.
Everyone I know is against racism, but when is racism relevant, at age 6, 10, 18? Perhaps the emphasis on destroying Black and Hispanic lives in the womb is the place to start?
