All Black Lives Matter
Last week, MFI’s Jonathan Alexandre wrote an article for the NewBostonPost, exposing the truth about Planned Parenthood facilites as “factories of Black death.”
“Black Lives Matter.”
The slogan, which started as an internet meme following the release of several highly-publicized videos of the killing of unarmed Black men by police officers, soon became an anti-police brutality slogan and later evolved into the rallying cry of a national political movement.
The mantra reiterates a timeless truth and undeniable reality — that the lives of Black people are important. And yet, the political movement associated with these words seems narrow-mindedly focused on the lives of only a discrete minority of Blacks: those who are killed by law enforcement or who are killed by those whose racism is obvious.
Disappointingly, it fails to address a very real violence that targets Black lives — the systemic killing of the Black population through abortion.
