Citing Racial Discrimination, Black Leaders Target Roe v. Wade

An Alabama lawsuit on behalf of unborn black babies thatโ€™s making its way through the stateโ€™s courts is alleging that the abortion industry is deliberately targeting black Americans and other minorities.

If successful, the attorneys and activists behind the case told The Epoch Times that it might ultimately lead to the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 precedent-setting U.S. Supreme Court opinion that struck down state laws against abortion.

Even if the case doesnโ€™t succeed in court, legal analysts and experts in the field say the implications in the court of public opinion are hard to overstate.

The lawsuit was filed by pro-life leader Amie Beth Shaver, named Miss Alabama in 1994, on behalf of โ€œBaby Q,โ€ an African American baby in Alabama who was unborn when the case began. Baby Q represents all other similar black babies in the womb across the state.

According to the complaint, Baby Q and other members of the โ€œclassโ€ are being unlawfully discriminated against and targeted for abortion by the industry. Abortion giant Planned Parenthood acknowledges its roots in the eugenics movement, although it says itโ€™s working to rectify that legacy.

โ€œAbout 80 members of Baby Qโ€™s class, which is African American babies in the womb, lose their lives in abortion every week in Alabama,โ€ Sam McLure, the lead lawyer representing the babies, told The Epoch Times in a phone interview. โ€œEnough is enough. This has to stop.โ€

Several leaders involved in the case told The Epoch Times that Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry more broadly have a long history of racism and support for eugenics, the highly controversial idea that humanity should be โ€œimprovedโ€ by weeding out allegedly inferior genes from the population.

โ€œThis case really boils down to the question of whether states have the right to prohibit eugenics abortion,โ€ McLure added.

Many of the black leaders involved in the case were also behind the Equality Proclamation, signed in 2020 on the 158th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, to shed light on what they describe as the systematic targeting of black babies.
