Is Abortion A Key to A Racist Agenda?


Niece of Martin Luther King Jr:: "abortion has done what the Klan only dreamed of."

One Quarter of Black Population Missing from Abortion Genocide Says Dr. Alveda King


Dr. Alveda King, the niece of legendary human rights campaigner, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., told a meeting of Priests for Life, that the killing of a quarter of the black population of the US has not been from the lynch mobs of her childhood days, but from abortionists, “who plant their killing centres in minority neighbourhoods and prey upon women who think they have no hope."


“The great irony,” she said, “is that abortion has done what the Klan only dreamed of.” King was speaking Sunday at the unveiling of memorials at the Birmingham, Alabama church served by her late father, the Rev. A. D. Williams King.

Dr. King pointed out that the killing of the unborn in the US, which has taken the lives of well over 42 million American children, is overwhelmingly concentrated in the African-American community. “In the last forty-plus years,” Dr. King said, “15 million black people have been denied their most basic civil right, the right to life. Roughly one quarter of the black population is now missing.”

The abortion movement’s history is inseparable from that of the eugenics movement that held the genocide of the “dysgenic races” races as a central goal and for which the poor were the “enemies of the people.” In the US, the abortion facilities and offices of Planned Parenthood are concentrated in poor areas where the black population is especially targeted.Margaret Sanger, the foundress of the organisation that eventually became Planned Parenthood, had as her goal the control and subjugation of the poor ethnic peoples including blacks.

Dr. King said, “It's time that we remember the sacrifices of men like my father and my uncle who worked and died so that our children could live.”“It's time to stop killing the future and keep their dream alive.”

MACOMB COUNTY — Intent on never forgetting Martin Luther King Jr.’s important message, the Macomb County Ministerial Alliance held a gathering to remind others of what the activist stood for.

The fifth annual Martin Luther King Jr. Community Fellowship Breakfast took place on Jan. 18, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, at Penna’s of Sterling in Sterling Heights. Local politicians, school officials, students and community activists attended the event.

Macomb County Sheriff Mark Hackel was the keynote speaker, and spoke about how Martin Luther King Jr.’s work is what has led to the first black president, Barack Obama, being elected in 2008.

“We watched together as America judged a man based solely on the content of his character. One small part of Dr. King’s dream became reality,” said Hackel. “It is beyond question that President Obama’s election would not have been possible without Dr. King’s sacrifice and his unwavering commitment to equality.”

Hackel also spoke about the importance of parents setting a good example for their children and how being a mentor to a young boy in Clinton Township has meant a great deal to him over the years.

“Seeing him waiting anxiously on his front porch for me to arrive, looking to see if I was watching when he catches a football or makes a tackle, looking for comfort when he misses a ball pitched to him or talking non-stop about his experiences at school and interactions with his classmates. Just knowing he is looking to make someone proud of who he is, makes me realize how important we as adults are to the children we are all responsible for,” said Hackel.

The program also featured speeches on what Martin Luther King Jr. means to several Macomb County preachers who are part of the Macomb County Ministerial Alliance, a group that formed in 2001 to work on social and economic equality for all residents in the region. Moreover, the audience saw various musical performances, including one from the Macomb County Ministerial Alliance Mass Choir.

Awards were handed out — Hackel received the Distinguished Public Service Award after his speech — and the Rev. Alexander Minor Jr. of Turner Chapel Christian Methodist Episcopal Church in Mount Clemens received the Distinguished Warrior Award.

Communities in Schools, the organization that took over the Cairns Community Center in Mount Clemens when it was in danger of shutting down, was also honored at the ceremony for their work.

“Communities in Schools … stood up and said ‘Yes, we will help you stabilize this center for the kids,” said Greg Murray, spokesperson for the Macomb County Ministerial Alliance.

“There are hundreds of children who have received services … that otherwise would have had to do without,” added Murray.

Local children who attended the event were then taken on a bus ride to the Cairns Community Center for a field trip, where the facility was segregated for students to learn about what life was like before the civil rights movement.

“They will come out with a better understanding of why the day is celebrated,” explained Murray.

Students were given a black ribbon or a white ribbon to determine which race they would represent. Various places in the Cairns Community Center were segregated, such as water fountains, as was the bus ride on the way there.

“There are a number of people who have only an intellectual understanding of what Martin Luther King Jr. was fighting against and this brings it a lot closer to a real experience,” said Murray.
