Default African-American pastors Accuse Planned Parenthood for 'Genocide' on Blacks

Pastors Accuse Planned Parenthood for 'Genocide' on Blacks
FOXNews.com - Pastors Accuse Planned Parenthood for 'Genocide' on Blacks - Politics | Republican Party | Democratic Party | Political Spectrum

"I think the media, and I think America, and certainly black folks, need to start thinking about race and Planned Parenthood, said Rev. Clenard Childress, who raised the question, not for the first time, about Planned Parenthood’s founder, Margaret Sanger, who died over 40 years ago at the age of 86."

"
"According to a report released by the group of Students for Life America on Tuesday, black women are 4.8 times more likely to have an abortion than white women, while the black population in the U.S. is in decline. Black women account for 36 percent of those having abortions in the U.S. today, according to group, while black children make up 17 percent of live births."

"Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood of Idaho apologized in February for the comments made by its staff during the UCLA student investigation.

“A fundraising employee violated the organization’s principles and practices when she appeared to be willing to accept a racially motivated donation,” said the Idaho-based organization told the Idaho Statesman. “We apologize for the manner in which this offensive call was handled. We take full responsibility for the actions of the fundraising staff member who created the impression that racism of any form would be tolerated at Planned Parenthood. We took swift action to ensure that each of our employees understands their responsibility to communicate clearly with donors about the fact that we believe in helping all individuals, regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation, make informed decisions about their reproductive health care.”

I was wondering how long it would take them to jump all over this after it aired on the news.

no one forces anyone to get an abortion. if more people from group (be it race, age, or anything else) choose to get abortions, they can't blame in on abortion providers.

now if someone is forcing ior pressuring someone to get an abortion, its a while other story...

The money for the abortions were specifically allocated for African Americans.

Well if the African Americans didn't go for an abortion this would be a non story wouldn't it.
