I know it has been quite some time since I have formally
written a blog post. I had a serious case of writers block for most of the
time, and the other portion I was transitioning to Reformed Baptist and all the
feels and craziness that come with that so I really took some time to “level
set” and now I think I am ready to proceed. I think. :-)
Every presidential election cycle something j u s t manages
to rustle my jimmies j u s t enough that I have to say SOMETHING about it,
today’s topic is abortion. As you can see on my social media if you follow me
at all, I’m very passionate about the topic. It is a huge issue that has major
impacts on society, and more specifically DEADLY impacts on the black
community.
Abortion On Demand
Let me lay out a few quotes from the mother of Planned
Parenthood, Margaret Sanger. Sanger was a rabid racist who wanted to see the
annihilation of those who were “detrimental to the future of the race.” She was
a staunch supporter of “Native Eugenics,” and fully engaged in eradicating as many black babies as she could through
various social programs.
This same Margaret Sanger that the Democratic Presidential
nominee Hillary Clinton says, “she admires,” started a population control
initiative called “The Negro Project." Hillary clearly states below in the quote
that she is for the cause that Sanger launched. The cause that is racist to the
core, the cause that set out to and is currently ending the lives of black
children before they can even be born. The cause created by Margaret Sanger the woman
who says, “ Colored people are weeds that need to be exterminated."
Sanger wanted genocide and I am sorry to
report she got exactly what she wanted and even more disheartening is many
black people, black churches even, assisted her in reaching that goal:
“This is the same Sanger who persuaded a few reluctant, yet incredibly influential, black ministers to join in her Birth Control movement. To dispel the rising doubts among those who objected to Birth Control on religious and moral grounds, Sanger wrote that “the ministers work is also important…offering to train him in their ideals because “we do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members”[i]
So actually by leveraging the influence of black pastors and
black leaders such as, Mary McLeod Bethune, W.E.B. DuBois, and Rev. Adam
Clayton Powell, Sr., Sanger was able to get the black community to drink the
koolaid and not only drink it but systematically pass it down from generation
to generation. Faithfully voting for those with an openly racist ideology and
disdain for poor black people, and those who are radically pro abortion like
our current black president Barack Obama and the Democratic Party nominee
Hillary Clinton.
Many media outlets have tried to rebrand Margaret Sanger’s
intentions by heralding her as a hero of the feminist movement. That is a flat
out lie. They are trying to hide the true context of how she planned to help
with woman’s rights:
“Some herald her as a hero that advanced women’s rights to new heights. But it’s important to understand the context in which she championed such ‘rights’. It was not out of benevolence but a deep-seated hatred of ‘forced’ motherhood, chastity, of the ‘inferior classes’, of religion (especially Catholicism), and racial elements that were a hindrance to the breeding of a ‘race of thoroughbreds’.3 She wasn’t interested in removing the cause of poverty, illiteracy, illegitimate births, or other social ills–just attacking the result…innocent life…which inherently had nothing to do with any of the conditions in which he or she was given life.”[ii]
Her true intentions weren’t women’s rights at all. She saw the major ill with society being poor black people. These quotes and declarations from Sanger about her contempt for black people, any social programs to assist black people, and religion were not isolated instances, they were her worldview and she threw herself into finding resources to spread and sustain it.
Even after her death her deadly vision is still being carried out even today, 80% of Planned Parenthood abortion mills are in black communities. Almost 2000 black babies are murdered in the womb DAILY because of what Sanger and Planned Parenthood started. Let that sink in. The number one killer of black people is abortion and it is legal.
So why even discuss the history of abortion, Margaret
Sanger, Hillary Clinton, President Obama etc? Because I believe many have not,
will not, or refuse to connect the dots on this issue. ABORTION IS A SYSTEMATIC
RACISM ISSUE. Many black people refuse to acknowledge it as such and will
legitimately get angry with me if I mention it as being a part of the “racism”
conversation, but as you can see from the history…its origins and true intent
has always been racist and sinister in nature. Why bring up everyone’s favorite
first black president and everyone’s favorite first Democratic Party
presidential nominee? Because they both are both radically pro abortion and
thus by default, for what is the biggest blight on our country and the biggest
issue facing the black community at this time.
I know emotions would dictate that the black communities
biggest concern should be inequality, the police shootings and the systematic
racism that still exists in this country and rears its ugly head daily. I am
NOT saying those things are not issues that need to be addressed. I am NOT saying it isn’t important that they be addressed. What I am saying is they
don’t even scrape the surface of the damage that abortion has done and
currently still is doing to our communities.
Don’t take my word for it…look at the numbers. You see the info graphic above the numbers
are staggering. Even more confusing to me is we know the history of slavery,
the blood that was shed to end it, yet abortion has killed more black people
than the slave trade ever did (remember slavery used to be legal too), and the black community is mostly silent on the abortion issue AND voting for politicians who enthusiastically want to continue the
murder of black babies.One Issue Voters
So the new #spinmachine question that has been thrown out on
the interwebs to distract people from looking at the facts, is being a “One Issue Voter.” Yes, when I look at the numbers and just the blind way many stand
and applaud choice and abortion on demand in our country I HAVE TO be a one
issue voter because the death is just too pervasive to ignore. Sure I could
hang my hat on many other issues…and trust me as a Christian, I have MANY other
concerns that I won’t go into here, however this issue of abortion on demand IS
A PRIORITY. It is just basic logic from my point of view. Black babies are
being systematically murdered at insane rates daily. We won’t have anyone to
fight for equality FOR if we don’t stand and begin to preach the Gospel and
plead with mothers to STOP ABORTING THEIR BABIES. Fathers stop taking the
mothers of your children (You are a PARENT whether that child is born or not)
to the clinic to murder your unborn children. And people PLEASE stop voting for
people that are for the systematic genocide of black people.
My question to the
folks who want to jump on the “One Issue Voting” parade is (especially my Christian brothers and sisters)… what other issue is
more pressing right now? If there is a more pressing issue that needs to be
addressed in our society that has brought more shame, death, and condemnation
on all of us than abortion has, I need you to share that with me.
The Hypocrisy
I got into trouble on the Twitter for sending this tweet:
“I have no chill when black folks vote for abortionists. Especially black folks who are always hollering racism. Hypocrisy much?" #BeConsistent @lvng4chrst
Yet I stand behind it 100%. You are a hypocrite if you
acknowledge that this country still has a racism issue yet you go to the polls
and vote for a pro-abortion candidate. There is no way around that. How will doing
that ever be consistent? Considering the intent of abortion, how its purpose is
being carried out in black communities, on such a disparate pace, how can this not be a huge part of
the systematic racism that plagues our society and more importantly why are so
many black leaders and people silent about it? Why can we unite in talking
about the history around the slave trade yet we won’t talk about the history
around abortion? Over 15.5 million black babies have been slaughtered since
1973 and the very same party that majority of black people openly support is the
same party that spearheads the effort to see that number continue to rise at
alarming rates. Currently more black babies are aborted than born alive in NewYork City, this is reprehensible. Am I missing
something regarding the death of these babies compared to other modes of death
for black people?
Why don’t these #BlackLivesMatter too?
That is what I want to know.
Praying that we all would truly vote our consciences in
November.
