RACIAL TARGETING: ABORTION IN BLACK AMERICA

Walter Hoye, President and Founder of Issues4Life Foundation and Executive Member of the National Black Pro-Life Coalition

Based on an analysis of data from the CDC’s “Abortion Surveillance” statistics2 and on the Guttmacher Institute’s estimated number of total abortions for 2020,3 30 states reported an estimated 364,623 African-American abortions during 2020.

How can abortion, something Planned Parenthood claims to be "liberating," cause so many Black deaths?

Below are the ten leading causes of death in Black America for 2020 and their relationship to African-American abortion numbers in 30 states during 2020:

• Diabetes Mellitus: 19,768 - Abortion kills 18.4 times as many Blacks as diabetes.

• Assaults (Homicide): 13,780Abortion kills 26.4 times as many Blacks as homicides.

• Chronic Lower Respiratory Disease: 12,508 - Abortion kills 26.4 times as many Blacks as lung disease.

• Alzheimer's Disease: 11,028Abortion kills 33.0 times as many Blacks as Alzheimer's disease.

According to the National Vital Statistics Report, the total number of deaths in Black America from the ten leading causes in 2020 was 344,942.1

• Heart Disease: 94,777 - Abortion kills 3.8 times as many Blacks as heart disease.

• Malignant Neoplasms: 71,879Abortion kills 5.0 times as many Blacks as cancer.

• COVID-19: 58,001 - 6.2 times as many Blacks were killed by abortion as died in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Accidents: 29,875 - Abortion kills 12.2 times as many Blacks as accidents.

• Cerebrovascular Disease: 22,646Abortion kills 17.8 times as many Blacks as strokes.

• Nephritis, Nephrotic Syndrome, and Nephrosis: 10,685 - Abortion kills 34.1 times as many Blacks as kidney disease.

Abortion cost 19,681 more Black lives in 2020 than all ten "leading" causes of death combined.

The Tuskegee Institute documents a total of 3,446 Negroes lynched by the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) between 1882 and 1968 (86 years). When compared to the 20 million Black lives taken by abortion from 1967 and 2019 (52 years), abortion in Black America has killed 6,096 Black American’s for every one Black American lynched by Ku Klux Klan (KKK). How can Black Americans align themselves with an industry that profits from the death of other Black Americans? More Black lives are lost to abortion each year than the ten leading causes of death or 6,096 times more than were taken by the Ku Klux Klan.

I just keep hearing the words of Cecile Moore, President of an NAACP chapter, at the 1965 meeting of the Council of Philadelphia’s AntiPoverty Action Committee. She condemned a Planned Parenthood program as “replete with everything to help the Negroes commit race suicide.”

My Lord, please help us.
