Pastors Accuse Planned Parenthood for 'Genocide' on Blacks

Thursday , April 24, 2008 By Kelley Beaucar Vlahos

WASHINGTON — The Planned Parenthood Federation of America has perpetuated a “genocide on the black community,” says a group of African-American pastors who claimed Thursday the birth control and abortion provider has had a racist agenda since its beginnings in 1921.

Holding a brief vigil and press conference in front of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Washington, D.C., the group of pastors and activists said they were incensed by the results of recent “undercover” inquiries into several Planned Parenthood clinics across the country.

“Every day … over 1,500 black babies are murdered inside the black woman’s womb,” said Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, of Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny (BOND). “This is a race issue.”

The pastors urged Congress to initiate an audit of the organization and have written letters demanding that money for Planned Parenthood be eliminated from federal Title X funding, of which the group got $65 million for fiscal year 2007, according to pro-life Concerned Women of America. In total, Planned Parenthood received $300 million in government contracts and grants in the current fiscal year.

The national office of Planned Parenthood provided FOX News with a lengthy statement on Thursday in which it said its role in the African-American community is widespread because the need is greater.

“The (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) revealed that a shocking number of teenage African-American girls — nearly half — carry a sexually transmitted infection," reads the statement. "This compares to an overall average rate for all teenage girls of at least one in four.

If it’s genocide on blacks, then it is genocide on whites. And Hillary is directing it.

The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation gives a lot of money to Planned Parenthood. They are off my list of charities.

I think the idea was that abortion would remove the progeny of those foolish enough to use it. And make money in the process, of course.

HAS IT EVER DAWNED ON HIM THAT THESE SINGLE MOMS CANNOT SUPPORT THESE BABIES WITHOUT A FATHER, AND IF HE’S SO CONCERNED MAYBE HE WANTS TO SUPPORT THEM FOR THE FIRST 18 YEARS INSTEAD OF THE TAX PAYER! THIS IS NOT A RACE ISSUE AS HE WISHES IT COULD BE, IT’S AN ECONOMIC ISSUE, IT’S A TAX PAYERS ISSUE!

Not far from the truth. Just google “Margaret Sanger” and “planned parenthood” and prepare for an eye-opening education!

I see the hyperbole in the discourse...but the fact remains the fact. Planned Parenthood helps to kill babies! I am frankly glad to see American black leaders seeing the organization for what it is....a murderous institution sanction by liberals and funded by our tax dollars!!

Good for them!!

The accusation is crap! The exact thing that happened is that a fund raiser told the caller what he wanted to hear but, this time it’s race pimps and baby killers going at it so, Go for it!

Yes, but don't confuse anyone with the truth. Just because black pastors raising a fuss, it must all be nonsense.

You bet! Her dream of ultimate eugenics and support of the Nazis didn’t need anything but abortion to be legal...

This is truly racist, and Planned Parenthood is a billion dollar corporation in the business of killing children.

Go after them Reverends. You’ve got my support.

The ‘race issue’ is being used for everything else these days...why NOT use it to stop the public funding of abortions. I know I am tired of paying for something I find abhorrent!

Let’s see Rev. Wright and Obama answer this charge!

YES..’Congressional Investigations’ on this would be ‘must see TV’!! Would love to see the liberals spin their way out of this charge....LOL
