Pro-Life Blogs has some great audio of Rev. Luke J. Robinson, pastor of the Quinn Chapel A.M.E. Church in Frederick MD addressing the crowd at the March for Life in Washington D.C. last month. They urged readers to pass it on, so I am abliging. Rev. Robinson calls attention to the genocide of the African American community. 500,000 African American lives are lost through abortion. Robinson calls it the “#1 killer of African Americans” and wonders, “where is the outcry?…Where is the voice of the African American People…the NAACP…the Congressional Black Caucus?”
Rev. Luke J. Robinson, March for Life 2007
Today, the president of the National Black Pro-Life Union released a statement about the very same thing:
“Throughout the month of February, we take the time … one month out of the year to remember the tragedies and celebrate the triumphs of African Americans in history. We celebrate the fact that we are a strong race that survived the many horrors and inhumane treatment when we were an enslaved people — presumed by many to be less than human.
We came together in the 1960s facing very difficult times when hundreds of African Americans suffered physical torture and sometimes even death … all for wanting to experience the American dream and for insisting that we be allowed that which we as American citizens are entitled to under the laws of this great country.
And since the ’60s we have continued to make great strides in breaking down color barriers and the walls of inequality…In our quest for higher education, bigger houses, better jobs and flashier cars … are we closing our eyes to the fact that more than a thousand of our children die each day by the horrible practice of abortion?
…More than 44 million children have been killed by abortion — 15 million of them were black children. Abortion has become the number one killer of black people in this country — killing more African Americans that accidents, heart disease, stroke, crimes, HIV-AIDS and all other deaths … COMBINED!”
