NASHVILLE, Tenn. — “Adulting” was not going great for Tia Freeman. She had lost her scholarship at the University of Tennessee and enlisted in the Air Force. As she finished training to be an analyst, she got pregnant despite being on birth control.
Both her parents worked, so the child care they could provide was limited. Day care would have eaten most of her paycheck. And even at age 20, Freeman knew that as a Black woman she would have more difficulty climbing the economic ladder than some other women would.
So she had an abortion.
“I’m at the bottom of the military rank system. I barely have enough to support me,” Freeman, now 26, recalled thinking at the time. “I knew this wasn’t going to be the kind of lifestyle that I would want to provide for a family.”
Black women disproportionately use abortion services across much of the South — where access is largely set to vanish if the Supreme Court this term overturns its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. And the consequences may be as much a risk to their economic opportunities as their health.
The Supreme Court is expected to issue a decision soon in a case about a Mississippi law that bans most abortions after 15 weeks. A draft opinion that was leaked suggests that a majority of the justices may be willing to overturn Roe.

JUST THE WAY MARGARET SANGER PLANNED IT!
Margaret Sanger isn’t the one walking into clinics.
Too many dumb, immoral sluts in the US are.
If money is more important than a baby, you have your priorities screwed up.
Looking at the mob outside the Supreme court right now, I can see how many “people of color” are out there ready to protest sumthin
"Murder
Black
Lives"!
Yep. You’d think they’d scream about the unjust and disproportionate genocide of black people, wouldn’t you?
I wonder why would anyone want a baby in Bidens america?
But at least you can get gene therapy for it if you do.
BLM stands for Black Lives Murdered. Think Chicago, and just about any abortion clinic. P.S.....no more indiscriminate booty call...
“she got pregnant despite being on birth control.”
Must have caught it off the toilet seat.
Racist love abortion because they’re killing black people before they even leave the womb.
I’m calling BS on this woman’s claim that she was on “birth control.” If she was on the pill, there would be no way of this happening.
So, young women go on with their BS lifestyles with the full expectation that the nanny state will subsidize them... at ANY cost.
Well at least they are helping keep the
population under control.
Sounds like a real winner. Society did everything it could to move her along, including a scholarship at a major university, which she was obviously not worthy of. But still the whining and excuses.
What do you have to do to lose a scholarship?
If you really do not want a baby, the woman should use birth control and the man should use a condom.
But many people do not use either and claim they did after the fact to save the embarrassment of losing self control and being stupid.
Plus, I wonder which white kid, probably male, decided he couldn’t afford college because he didn’t rate the same kind of scholarship she did.
You're right.
And even IF she didn't intend to get pregnant... just what percentage of women who seek abortions are/have been put in that situation?
I am certain that the highest demand for abortion is from women who are careless and themselves, must take responsibility for their lives.
We're living in the 21st century and have long ago made the correlation between intercourse and reproduction. We have all figured out how NOT to get pregnant. I mean, follow the science!!
Yep. Be a drunk slut for a decade, get a couple abortions, and then expect some man to marry your used ass at 33 y/o.
Enjoy your careers, cats, and boxed wine.
Feminism destroyed women.
There are, of course, still good women out there.
