Cincinnati, OH (LifeNews.com) -- Leading pro-life African Americans are finalizing their plans to protest abortion at the upcoming national convention of the NAACP. The black pro-life advocates say they plan to point out how the civil rights group is unwilling to discuss how abortion disproportionately affects the African-American community.
As LifeNews.com reported exclusively last month, Rev. Clenard Childress, a New Jersey pastor, and a leader of the black pro-life group LEARN, says the protests will address the NAACP, abortion and Barack Obama.
His group, with the help of several other pro-life organizations, will hold signs at the entrance to the Duke Energy Center when the NAACP delegates gather next Monday.
"Abortion kills 1,452 black infants every day in this country. Sadly, the black community and its leaders are largely ignoring the slaughter," Childress said in a new statement on Monday.
Childress says that, historically, the NAACP "has failed to address the concerns of many of its delegates about abortion."
He pointed to a 2004 resolution voicing support for “equal access to abortion” and urging its members to participate in a pro-abortion rally in Washington. Then, in 2007, the NAACP, for the second time in four years, blocked a proposed resolution expressing opposition to abortion.
"The good news is the NAACP’s Macon chapter is once again poised to present another pro-life resolution at this year’s Cincinnati conference and we will be there to support them," Childress says.
The pastor told LifeNews.com in the statement that his group will employ signs showing the victims of abortion because they have fared well with African Americans before.
"We will teach the delegates of the reality of black genocide," he explained.
Childress also says black Americans need to know the devastating psychological, physical and spiritual problems women face after having abortions.
"By displaying actual abortion images at this year’s convention we hope to show the need for the NAACP to allow discussion at the convention the detrimental health ramifications of abortion," he says. "The physical and psychological maladies caused by abortion are deliberately hidden from unsuspecting women."
Childress is sponsoring two buses to bring 100 African-American pro-lifers with him to the event.
This is THREE TIMES the rate of infanticide for white babies.
Pro-Life Ping
Abortion kills a disproportionate number of blacks and has it’s roots in eugenics. It’s sad more blacks don’t recognize the blatant racism in abortion.
I would not expect much from the NAACP — a disgusting self-serving racist group that could care less about abortion issues. They are just typical liberals in a different wrapper.
“Abortion kills a disproportionate number of blacks and has it’s roots in eugenics.”
You’re right on the money. If any reasoning black American would google Margaret Sanger they would be adamantly against abortion.
I’d pump in some money to see the numbers increased.
I very much support what this guy is doing. If this level of butchering of Black fetuses isn’t genocide, I have to question what is. The end result is that millions of Blacks have been erased.
That is sickening to me. I wish him every good thing to bring this message home. You go guy!!! You’re the man.
I agree. Good call.
FANTASTIC link! (I always forget to post it.)
It's not even really the NAACP; it's NAAAA. (National Association for the Advancement of African-Americans.)
Bravo for the Black pro-life advocates! (Surely they're not going to vote for Obama considering his pro-abortion views and votes.)
What the hell is wrong with these so called black leaders?
They are supporting a party that is working hard to abort as many black babies as possible.
They are supporting a party that has destroyed the black family.
They are supporting the destruction of their own kind.
Are they stupid enough to believe that the demoncraps will let them live after the entire African-America is destroyed?
