“The not-so-concealed theme of some major figures in NARAL [National Abortion Rights Action League] and NOW [National Organization for Women] was that abortion should be legal because the most prolific breeders were welfare mothers from the dangerous classes … the leader of NARAL in New York lobbied against the provisions to protect poor minority women from involuntary sterilization, and so did Planned Parenthood.”
Alexander Cockburn, quoted in Proletarian Revolution, Fall 1989, page 28
Share on FacebookPro-choice activists opposed proposed regulations of abortion clinics in Pennsylvania. These regulations were prompted by the Kermit Gosnell incident.
According to the article:
“….the measure would hold abortion providers to the same standards as doctors providing any other medical procedure.”
From Rep. Jerry Stern, R-Blair, who supported the bill:
“I would think any woman who has a medical procedure performed at one of these clinics would want to be assured that the facility meets state minimum standards. The conditions and treatment that women have been subjected to at facilities such as the Women’s Medical Society in Philadelphia and the Allentown Medical Services are quite honestly disgraceful.”

“in today’s world many who see themselves as progressive attack adoption as an exploitive institution.”

This may explain why so few women put babies up for adoption.
Is adoption really a worse choice than abortion?

From a study on women having abortions:
“… half the sample endorsed being really scared and 40% agreed that they were scared that a termination might damage them emotionally or physically.”
Allanson S., Astbury J. The Abortion Decision: Reasons and Ambivalence. Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics and Gynecology 1995 September; 16 (3): 123 – 36, P130
For many women, these fears were justified. Read about physical and emotional harm of abortions.
Share on FacebookFrederica Mathews-Green describes why there are so many children in foster care despite couples’ intentions to adopt them:
“There are roughly 400,000 children in foster care nationwide, with about 38,000 available for adoption. These children wait an average of 2 2/3 years to be adopted; the reasons vary. One is the lack of black adoptive couples: although only 14% of all children are black, they make up 38% of all children in foster care awaiting adoption. Some social workers will delay these children’s adoptions for years, searching for a black couple and turning away whites. Black children in foster homes, bonding with white foster parents, may be taken away if it is suspected that the parents will apply to adopt. The child will be moved to a black foster family, although it may have no interest in adopting.”
The National Association of Black Social Workers has fought the adoption of African-American children by white families for the past 30 years.
“Black children should be placed only with black families… [We will] work and this particular form of genocide.”

Share on FacebookDr. Bernard Nathanson, who was a founder of NARAL, a group that was active in the fight to legalize abortion:
“Of course, I was pleased with Justice Harry Blackmun’s abortion decisions, which were an unbelievably sweeping triumph for our cause, far broader than our 1970 victory in New York or the advances since then. I was pleased with Blackmun’s conclusions, that is. I could not plumb the ethical or medical reasoning that had produced the conclusions. Our final victory had been propped up on a misreading of obstetrics, gynecology, and embryology, and that’s a dangerous way to win.”
Bernard Nathanson, M.D. Aborting America (New York: Pinnacle Books, 1979) 163 quoted in Michael Spellman Love the Least (A Lot)
Nathanson later became pro-life
From the same book:
Justice Blackmun’s former clerk Edward Lazarus, who is now a federal prosecutor:
“What, exactly, is the problem with Roe? The problem, I believe, is that it has little connection to the constitutional right purportedly interpreted… When Democratic Senators oppose a judicial appointment because of the nominees opposition to Roe, they not only endorsement make a litmus test out of one of the most intellectually suspect constitutional decisions of the modern era. They practically require that a judicial nominee sign onto logic that is, at best, questionable, and at worst, this disingenuous and results-oriented.”
