There are strong opinions regarding Starbucks encouraging their employees to discuss the issue of race with customers,<\/a> while serving them their cup of coffee.<\/p>\n

As Saynsumthn Blog<\/a> notes, pro-lifers have taken to Twitter and used the hashtag #RaceTogether to discuss race, abortion, and Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to its last annual report, Planned Parenthood committed 327,653 abortions<\/a>.\u00a0The organization was founded by Margaret Sanger, a eugenicist as evidenced by her own statements<\/a>. The film Maafa 21<\/a>, which includes portions on Sanger, regards abortion as “black genocide…” It’s ironic that the organization would celebrate Black History Month then as it did<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Live Action investigations have revealed audio <\/a>recordings<\/a> showing how Planned Parenthood employees are willing to accept racist donations, even when the caller explicitly mentions that he wants his money to go towards the abortion of a black baby, accompanied with other blatantly racist statements.<\/p>\n

In New York City, where there are many Starbucks locations, the abortion rate is 37 percent, according to 41 Percent NYC<\/a>.\u00a0 As reported, African-Americans also abort their babies at the highest rate. In 2012, the abortion rate for blacks was more than 50 percent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 2010 Census also notes <\/a>that while blacks account for only 12 percent of the population, they make up 35.4 percent of abortions.<\/p>\n

Abortion is the leading cause of death among African-Americans. In 2009,\u00a0286,623 blacks died\u00a0<\/a>from causes unrelated to abortion. Of the abortions that occurred in the United States that year, 35.4 percent of abortions were of African-American babies. The shocking number reveals that almost twice as many blacks were killed by abortion than any other cause of death.<\/p>\n

This tragic number one killer was also on the cover of Live Action’s cover of The Advocate<\/em> from 2008. <\/a><\/p>\n

In 2010, the population of blacks was almost 39 million<\/a>. With the percentage of abortions rising, from 24 percent in the 1970’s, to almost 36 percent in the 2000’s<\/a>, 31 percent of abortions have been performed on black women since 1973. When we use the estimate of over 57.7 million abortions<\/a> since Roe v. Wade<\/em>, over 17 million black children have lost their lives to abortion.<\/p>\n

This also has an effect on the population growth rate. While there was a reported growth of 12 percent from 2000 to 2010, the Census reported <\/a>that the black population “grew at a slower rate than most other major race and ethnic groups in the country.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
