A shocking set of
recordings was released...that could prove disastrous for
Planned Parenthood's ties with the African-American community.
Lila Rose, a pro-life student and reporter at UCLA, launched an
undercover investigation aimed at exposing the racism of the
nation's largest abortion merchant. With the help of an actor,
she contacted Planned Parenthood clinics in seven states,
inquiring if they would be willing to accept a donation
earmarked for the abortion of black babies. The results were
jaw-dropping.
Rose was appalled to discover that every last clinic agreed. Not
one employee objected or questioned the request, even when the
actor insisted that the purpose was to "lower the number of
black people" in America. When the caller phoned an Ohio branch,
he was told that Planned Parenthood "will accept the money for
whatever reason." Read the outrageous transcript from the Idaho
clinic, which is also available with Rose's other recordings in
a montage at

Actor:
...I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I
don't want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids.
Planned Parenthood: Yes, absolutely.
Actor: And we don't, you know, we
just think the less black kids out there the better.
Planned Parenthood: (Laughs)
Understandable, understandable... This is the first time
I've had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I'm
excited and want to make sure I don't leave anything out.
Students at UCLA are so infuriated by the
investigation that they are petitioning the university to cut
all affiliation with Planned Parenthood. What few people realize
is that the organization has a history of racism that has been
ingrained since Planned Parenthood's earliest days, when founder
Margaret Sanger advocated negative eugenics and spoke to a
woman's branch of the KKK (Margaret Sanger, An
Autobiography, 1938, p. 336-367). However, as is
customary for Planned Parenthood, the organization has managed
for decades to cover its tracks--and the facts. That task has
just been made monumentally more difficult. Abortion has taken
the innocent lives of over 14 million black children--a national
tragedy that has begun uniting and mobilizing African-Americans
across party, state, and financial lines.
... As these abortion clinics continue to demonstrate that blood
money is not colorblind, we call on Congress to de-fund and
disavow Planned Parenthood. Taxpayers should not be forced to
spend over $300 million on an organization whose scruples are
for sale, even to those who seek racial genocide.
