Black 'leaders' ripped for courting abortion industry

Rev. Clenard H. Childress, Jr. calls it a "tragedy" that more than half of all African-American pregnancies end in abortion. Just as tragic, he says, is that many black pastors are fully aware of it – but as "shepherds" they are choosing to ignore it, effectively "leading their sheep to the slaughter."

According to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and the Guttmacher Institute, a disproportionate amount of abortions take the lives of African-American babies. Blacks make up 12.4 percent of the U.S. population – but account for 37 percent of the abortions.

Childress, a long-time pro-life advocate, is director of BlackGenocide.org. Still a church pastor in New Jersey, he also is dedicated to bringing to the attention of the black community the issue of how abortion is disproportionately affecting it. That fact, he says, is being ignored – especially among those who consider themselves leaders of the black community.

"It's gross negligence when it comes to any African-American group who ignores this," he said last week on American Family Radio. "Our perceived leadership [in the black community] has literally deceived the masses – the NAACP, the Congressional Black Caucus, the Rainbow Coalition. They will not have this discussion. It's been censored."

For example, said Childress, the NAACP violated its own bylaws in censoring resolutions that came in from chapters in Macon, Dayton, and Cincinnati concerning the disproportionate amount of African-Americans when it comes to abortion.

A black death is a tragedy, but a black genocide is a statistic.

The Center for Disease Control. Pregnancy is a disease? Is that what Obama meant by not wanting hid daughters to be punished for getting pregnant?

The whole world was punished when Obama’s mother got pregnant.
