A seven-state investigation conducted last summer by a student magazine at UCLA, The Advocate, revealed the presence of an ugly strain of racism in Planned Parenthood affiliates, including Planned Parenthood of Idaho.
An actor, posing as a racist donor, called Planned Parenthood development centers and asked that his donation be used to abort African-American babies in order to “lower the number of black people.” According to the magazine, every branch – including Idaho’s - agreed to process the racially earmarked donations, and none expressed concern about the racist reasoning for the donation.
Said IVA Executive Director Bryan Fischer, “It turns out that blatant racism is alive and well in Idaho, but it’s not coming from the Aryan Nation types – it’s coming from way-left organizations like Idaho’s own Planned Parenthood.”
He continued, “If Idaho is in fact a haven for white racism, it turns out that Planned Parenthood and not Richard Butler is to blame.”
Added Fischer, “Ms. Kersey’s conduct in the phone conversation is reprehensible. She should be immediately fired, and since her thinking appears to represent the thinking of Planned Parenthood, it might be best if the organization closed its doors and left the state. Idaho is too great for hate and racism.”
Fischer concluded, “Idaho didn’t have room for Richard Butler and shouldn’t have room for Planned Parenthood.”
The press release issued by the magazine contains a partial transcript of the conversation between the actor and Autumn Kersey, the Vice-President of Development and Marketing for Planned Parenthood of Idaho. At one point, the actor says, “the less black kids out there the better.” Kersey’s response? Unbelievably, she laughs and says “understandable” – not once but twice!
The phone conversation was recorded, which is perfectly legal since Idaho is a single-consent state. Here are excerpts from the phone conversation:
Transcript of telephone conversation with Autumn Kersey, Vice-President of Marketing and Development, Planned Parenthood of Idaho:
Idaho Donor: Wonderful. I want to specify that abortion to help a minority group, would that be possible?
PP Rep: Absolutely.
Donor: Like the black community for example?
PP Rep: Certainly.
Donor: The abortion—I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose?
PP Rep: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that your gift be used to help an African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that the gift was earmarked for that purpose
.
Idaho donor: Great, because I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name.
PP Rep: Yes, absolutely.
Idaho donor: And we don’t, you know we just think, the less black kids out there the better.
PP Rep: (Laughs) Understandable, understandable.
Idaho donor: Right. I want to protect my son, so he can get into college
PP Rep: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and want to make sure I don’t leave anything out.

Ms. Kersey had not returned a call from the IVA by the time this press release was sent.
The founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was a well-known proponent of eugenics to cull those she considered unfit from the population. She said in 1921 that eugenics is “the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems.” At another point, she lamented “the ever increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.”
Planned Parenthood, obediently marching in lockstep with Sanger’s racist vision, has located 79% of its clinics nationwide in minority neighborhoods. About 35% of all abortions are performed on blacks, even though they comprise less than 13% of the population. Almost half of all black pregnancies are aborted.
Fischer’s last comment: “In essence, Planned Parenthood is engaged in a form of racial genocide.”

PP: Good afternoon, this is Autumn.
Donor: Hello, Autumn, I’m interested in making a donation today.
Autumn: Fantastic!
Donor: What about abortions for the underprivileged minority groups?
Autumn: Oh, absolutely. We have, um, in fact, uh wonderful, fantastic news. We just received a very generous donation to our women in need fund.
Donor: Wonderful. I want to specify that abortion to help a minority group, would that be possible?
Autumn: Absolutely.
Donor: Like the black community for example?
Autumn: Certainly.
Donor: OK, so the abortion…I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose.
Autumn: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that you wanted your gift to be used to help (an) African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that that gift was earmarked specifically for that purpose.
Donor: Great. Because I really face trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids being disadvantaged, you know, against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name, you know.
Autumn: Mmhmm, absolutely.
Donor: So that’s definitely possible.
Autumn: Oh, always, always.
Donor: So I just wanna – can I put this in the name of my son?
Autumn: Absolutely.
Donor: Yeah, he’s trying to get into colleges, and he’s going to be applying, you know, he’s just…we’re just really big…he’s really faced troubles with affirmative action.
Autumn: Mmhmm
Donor: And we don’t, you know, we just think, you know, the less black kids out there the better.
Autumn: (Laughs) Understandable, understandable.
Autumn: Um David, let me, if I may, just get some sort of specific general information so we can set this up the right way. You said you wanted to put it in your son’s name, and you would like this designated specifically to assist (an) African-American woman who’s looking to terminate a pregnancy.
Donor: Exactly, and yeah, I wanna protect my son, so he can get into college.
Autumn: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, um, um, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and I wanna make sure I don’t leave anything out.
Did she actually say “blacks” or did she use euphamisms like “those who are feeble-minded” or “undesirables” as a substitute?
I don’t doubt you are (ultimately) correct in her meaning, but I’m not aware of a (blatant) quote where she advocates for the control of the black (specific) population.
excuse my ignorance but wasn’t this Margaret Sanger’s goal all along?
disgusting
A lot of changes happened .. some good ... some not so good.
As time went on, the good changes were manipulated to actually retain racism ... even reverse America's attitude back to the old Jim Crow days.
Now, because of diversity and immigration, the freedom "to be" in America is being used to continue the fraying and rendering of the fabric of America.
The various groups that gather, generally gather to de facto start trouble.
Cinco de Mayo immediately came to mind when I first read this.
What's the solution?
Either eliminate all the "diversity" laws/practices ... Allow the skin head/neo Nazi types to wade in with crowbars (no pun intended) ... or sit back and watch on TV the further destruction of a Nation ....
a lot of blood was voluntarilly spilled for.
ping
I almost can’t believe this.
I’m glad someone caught these people on tape!!!!!!
Why would anyone be suprised by this? Some of the biggest pro-abort advocates in the US have argued for it to contol the black population. I may be wrong, but I believe PP’s founder was one of them.
“excuse my ignorance but wasn’t this Margaret Sanger’s goal all along?”
Yeah, but she wanted to get rid of Jews too.
I’m not surprised to hear this. That whole organization is evil throughout to its very core.
And here I was, going along, thinking I was too jaded and cynical to be shocked by anything...
This is thorougly sickening.
thanx for the link, I’m a young guy so I’ve learned something new today.
I don’t find this particularly difficult to believe with Planned Parenthood. But I’d have to see [hear] some evidence before I promulgate the accusation. Even though I do consider the source here to be reliable and ethical.
The person who founded Planned Parenthood actually did so as part of the eugenics movement. It’s reason for coming into being was specifically to facilitate the abortion of black babies.
I don’t have a link right now, but I’m sure google or amazon would bring up the books that have researched this ugly truth.
This should be the lead story on 20/20 this week. Instead ABC had to hire two actors in a lame attempt to show “Islamophobia” which does not exist. Meanwhile we have a smoking gun against Planned Parenthood that would generate complete outrage among Blacks.
If Conservatives were half the boogeymen that the Media makes us out to be, we could be quoting Freakenomics and doing demographic handstands over this, but the plain fact is, killing a defenseless child is never the right thing to do.
Only racists and Leftist Racists think this is a good thing, and not only is it a good thing, it should be subsidized with private donations.
God sees the truth, but waits, I fear for my country sometimes.
I have found it disgusting the way some of the “fiscal conservatives” around here have treated the “social conservatives” or “evangelicals” as bastard children.
When you look at the way our system of government-mandated social programs has destroyed the black family (first), and is now working on the rest, I can’t understand why I am branded a liberal because I consider the “social” component more important than the “fiscal” component of conservatism.
To my way of thinking, if we were to go back to the strong familial unit as it existed in the past, (here’s where the fiscal conservatism comes in) the social-engineering programs become unnecessary, and taxes and the size of government can be reduced....forever; as they should be.
I want us to be self-sufficient. I want the strong family once again, and the fathers to be present. (there was a good Townhall column on this a day or so ago)
I believe that once people are brought up in strong families, with strong values, the prospect of permanent fiscal conservatism is not only likely, it will be mandatory.
A self-sufficient, hard-working person has no use for government intrusion, and would discourage it at every turn.
Call it a “three-legged” stool if you want, but our government’s “fiscal irresponsibility” has resulted in the social decline we are facing.
I think if we are to get back to fiscal responsibility (on a permanent basis) we will have to fix the idea that social dependence (on government) is unacceptable.
Simply put, “Fiscal Conservatism” cannot breed “Social Conservatism”, but “Social Conservatism” CAN breed (and would likely encourage) “Fiscal Conservatism”.
