Black Community News News and Commentary for Christians
Turning Point Pregnancy Resource Center interviewed Ben Watson, a tight end for the Baltimore Ravens and a pro-lifer.
The father of five (and author of Under Our Skin: Getting Real about Race. Getting Free from the Fears and Frustrations that Divide Us) recently made headlines because he said this about Planned Parenthood and Margaret Sanger:
“I do know that blacks kind of represent a large portion of the abortions, and I do know that honestly the whole idea with Planned Parenthood and Sanger in the past was to exterminate blacks, and it’s kind of ironic that it’s working. We (as minorities) support candidates, and overwhelmingly support the idea of having Planned Parenthood and the like, and yet, that is why she created it. We are buying it hook, line, and sinker, like it’s a great thing. It’s just amazing to me and abortion saddens me period, but it seems to be something that is really pushed on minorities and provided to minorities especially as something that they should do.”
