Alveda Speaks
Alveda King, Dr. King’s neice, speaks to Newsweek. The most important issue facing African-American’s today? According to Alveda, it’s abortion.
What is the most pressing issue facing African-Americans today?
If we were in the 1990s, I would have said that school choice is the most pressing civil-rights issue. We’re now in the new millennium, and the battle for life, in my heart, has equal place. By that, I’m speaking of the pro-life movement. I am a member of a group called Silent No More, of mostly women who say they regret their abortion. I’m post-abortive so I know this, when we abort the child, we violate his or her rights, we as the mothers suffer tremendously, and our families suffer. I remember my children saying, “You killed our brother or our sister, how could you do that? Did you want to kill us, too?” My uncle said that “the Negro cannot win if he is willing to sacrifice the lives of his children for personal comfort and safety.” Now if you look at the issue of abortion, that’s immediately sacrificing the life of a child for personal comfort and safely.
