Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Abortion Disproportionately Targets African Americans Abortion has many dirty secrets. Particularly relevant during Black History Month is the fact that the abortion industry disproportionately targets blacks. African Americans represent 12 percent of the population but endure 32 percent of the abortions in our country. Often we hear mention of the fact that the black community has been hit much harder by HIV/AIDS than the general American population. Sadly, it's true. Consider, then, the Life Education And Resource Network's (LEARN) findings that, since 1973, more than twice as many blacks have died from abortion than from heart disease, cancer, accidents, violent crimes, and AIDS combined. Given the extremely political nature of abortion, jarring findings like this are kept secret. Black History Month shouldn't be the only time that we expose them and commit ourselves to pro-life renewal.
