In 1993 the New York City branch of the NAACP selected Dr. Dolores Grier to be the recipient of the Women’s History Month award, she refused it and membership because of the organization’s pro-choice stance on abortion.
Dr. Grier recently made this statement saying that we must witness to True-Life :
“We must bear witness to true life,” Dr. Grier told The Journey Home Program, “I say true-life because too many of those who say pro-choice. Pro-choice is the comfort zone for our legislators who’d rather say pro-choice- the right to choose. Choose what? Whether or not to kill the child in the womb, that’s what she’s choosing.”
In 1992, Grier commented on Planned Parenthood founder, Margaret Sanger, stating that the idea of pruning the Black race began with Sanger, “We were not equal to white people and she didn’t think we should populate the earth, and she wanted to eliminate anybody who had color and economic crisis.”
Dolores Bernadette Grier a founder of the Association of Black Catholics against Abortion and who also sat on the board of the African American Society Against Abortion and the New York State Right To Life Committee told a newspaper that she was inspired to join the pro-life movement by Jesse Jackson.
She said her firm stance on the abortion issue was influence by the Reverend whom she heard deliver an elegant and persuasive speech on the issue at a New York Hotel in 1977.
Grier said, “After the talk, I went up and said, ‘ Rev. Jackson, I’m going to join the pro-life movement. You said the pro-life movement needed youth and color, and I am the color.”
Sadly Jesse Jackson soon changed his position on abortion when he ran for president. Read Jackson’s pro-life statements before his flip here.
“As president of the Association of Black Catholics,” Dr. Grier wrote, “I believe abortion to be a racist weapon of genocide against black people.”
Dr. Grier is right. Today abortion targets and slaughters more African Americans than all other causes of death combined.
