Abortion question....

Someone asked me a good question....The largest demographic of those who receive abortions are single African American women. If you are against abortion, does that mean that you are inherently for Black Lives matter? If you are for women's rights/proabortion, does that mean that you are inherently against BLM? Banning abortions allows more single African American women to have their babies which is consistent with the BLM movement. Thoughts?

There is no connection between BLM and abortion full stop.

Ridiculous in my opinion to try and link those two separate movements.
33% of abortions are had by whites while 38% are had by blacks.
But because blacks only make up 13-14% of Americans you are correct that its a comparatively large percentage of abortions had by blacks.
Being that financial concerns are one of the most common reasons for abortions and being that blacks tend to be lower on the economic ladder and have less family resources than whites on average perhaps abortions should be linked to poverty issues but not BLM.
