Do you know the Relationship between the Evangelicals, Segregation and Abortion?

Evangelicals considered abortion a Catholic issue and actually supported Roe v Wade, until desegregation started getting momentum.

So what this implies is that anti-abortion campaigns are yet another form of racism -
deliberately targeted at increasing the deaths of pregnant black and brown women due to insufficient medical care during pregnancy complications and labour, and deliberately reducing the numbers of black and brown babies born due to these same complications.

Based on the stats - black and brown women 118 times more likely to die due to lack of access to care in the southern states - you're probably right. :( :( :(

@BohemianBabe Yes. I'm sure they already have lots of charities for fostering and adoption.

Unfortunately, from what we now know from the histories of such children, many adopt and foster for the wrong reasons and the results are even worse than being raised by a parent who doesn't want or can't look after a child.
Although many adopting/fostering parents are responsible and loving, an abnormally high proportion (compared to biological parents) have been found by the courts and special investigations to have treated their kids as sexual or work slaves.

@hartfire Actually, they don’t adopt or foster in numbers any higher than those who identify as pro-choice, according to Pew. However, they do consistently vote against funding for social programs that would provide help with education, and aid for low income. They did before Roe v. Wade and there’s no reason to believe they’d change now that they’ve gotten their way.
