In 1854, Abraham Lincoln confronted America’s first “pro-choice” senator, Stephen Douglas, in a speech in Peoria, Ill.
“Choice” then was about slavery, not abortion.
Douglas sponsored the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which addressed the sticky question of how to deal with legality of slavery in new territories entering the union. The Kansas-Nebraska Act resolved this by “choice.” Residents would vote to decide if slavery would be legal in their territory.
Lincoln challenged Douglas’s “pro-choice” position on slavery. According to Douglas, said Lincoln, “… the principle of the Nebraska Bill was very old; that it originated when God made man and placed good and evil before him, allowing him to choose for himself, being responsible for the choice he should make.”
No, said Lincoln. “God did not place good and evil before man, telling him to make his choice. On the contrary, he did tell him there was one tree, of the fruit of which he should not eat, upon pain of certain death.”
Our Constitution, conveyed by the nation’s founders 65 years before Lincoln spoke those words, circumvented the question of slavery, permitting the great paradox of a nation founded on the ideals of freedom, which allowed slavery.
The struggle for racial justice in America – whether fighting slavery, or fighting for civil rights – has always been informed by absolute standards of right and wrong, of good and evil, that transcend even the cleverest human mind. Black history is testimony to where we wind up when those standards get lost.
Yet, once again, those standards have gotten lost. And, once again, black Americans are bearing the brunt of the cost of a nation that has lost its moral rudder. This time as result of wantonly legal and available abortion.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, blacks accounted for 35.4 percent of abortions performed in 2009, despite representing, according to the 2010 census, just 13.6 percent of the U.S. population.
Let’s not be deluded that this is an accident.
Analysis of 2010 census data by an initiative called Protecting Black Life shows that 79 percent of Planned Parenthood abortion clinics are located within walking distance of minority neighborhoods – 62 percent within 2 miles of primarily black neighborhoods and 64 percent of Hispanic/Latino neighborhoods.
Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, systematically targets minority women for abortion.
Before the Civil War, there were churchgoing Americans who rationalized slavery by believing that blacks were less than human. This view was legally formalized in the U.S. Supreme Court’s infamous Dred Scott decision.
It is not surprising that our first “pro-choice” senator, Stephen Douglas, supported the Dred Scott decision.
Views echoing Dred Scott help rationalize Planned Parenthood’s targeted destruction of black children in the womb.
In 1957, Mike Wallace interviewed Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, and asked her if she believed in sin.
Sanger, whose racist and eugenicist views are well documented, replied, “I believe the biggest sin in the world is parents bringing children into the world that have disease from their parents, that have no chance in the world to be a human being practically. Delinquents, prisoners, all sorts of things just marked when they are born.”
It is a sign of these dismally confused times that it was our first black president, Barack Obama, who, last week, became the first sitting American president to address Planned Parenthood.
In his address, the president did not use the word “abortion” once, nor was there a single reference to the current trial and murder charges against Philadelphia abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell.
You’d think he was addressing Ronald McDonald House, not an organization that provided 333,964 abortions last year, disproportionately on black women.
Black unemployment and poverty rates are almost double the national averages. I suppose Planned Parenthood, with support from our president, and $542 million in taxpayer funds, feels it is doing its part to solve this problem.
Stunning documentary proves that decades-old eugenics movement is alive and well today: “Maafa 21: Black Genocide in 21st Century America”
