Pro-life activists painted<\/a> the words “Black Preborn Lives Matter” on the street in front of Planned Parenthood in Baltimore, Maryland, last week. While the police arrested two activists for doing the same in Washington, D.C., last month, Baltimore police said the message could stay. But the next day, it was removed by the city.<\/p>\n

Through the joint efforts of Students for Life of America (SFLA), The Frederick Douglass Foundation, and Human Coalition Action, the painting\u00a0aimed to shine a light on the fact that the Black community accounts for just 13 percent of the population but nearly 38 percent of the abortion rate, according to<\/a> David Cordaro, Marketing Director for SFLA. Fifteen activists began painting the words at 5:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 30, and were finished by 5:30. The paint was not permanent, and could be washed off by rain.<\/p>\n

"City failed to issue permit for this but sent the chronically understaffed DPW to wash this away when trash is on every corner. Meanwhile, Black Trans Lives Matters remains intact and safe from city hoses." #Hypocrisy<\/a> #priorities<\/a> #doblacklivesmatter<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/VUCf8lviSp<\/a><\/p>\n
