In the United States, black children are aborted a
Post# of 123729
BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE PRO ABORTION PROTESTORS, THERE ARE FEW BLACKS AND LATINOS.
Whatever the intentions of Planned Parenthood, abortion is eliminating an incommensurate number of minority children.
In America today, the average black woman is almost five times more likely to have an abortion than the average white woman.
Part of this disparity owes to the fact that, statistically, black women get pregnant more frequently than white women, but even if we control for pregnancy, black babies are still more than three-and-a-half times more likely to be aborted than their white counterparts.
No matter what your opinion of abortion, the fact that it disproportionality eliminates members of the minority community is a significant sociological problem.
Here’s what it looks like by the numbers.
According to the latest census estimates, just over 13% of the U.S. population is black, and yet somewhere between 28-38% of all U.S. abortions are performed on black babies.
The Guttmacher Institute puts that number at 28%, based on voluntary 2014 survey data from 8,380 respondents. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) places the number at 38%, based on actual counts of every 2016 abortion performed in the 30 states/districts that collect and report abortion data by race. By comparison, non-Hispanic white women make up 60% of the population but account for only 35-39% of all abortions.
Among black women, the current abortion ratio is 401. That means there are 401 abortions for every 1,000 live births.
Statistically, 29% of black pregnancies end in abortion (excluding miscarriages). Among white women, the abortion ratio is 109—which means less than 10% of white pregnancies end in abortion.
The current abortion rate among black women, which is the number of abortions per 1,000 women of reproductive age is 25. That means that in 2016, 2.5% of black women, aged 15-44, had an abortion. By comparison, only 0.67% of white women of reproductive age had an abortion that year.
In 2018, approximately 2,400 human beings lost their lives to abortion each day in the United States.
On average, 19% were Hispanic, 38% were black, and 35% were white.
