Alveda King Keeping the Dream Alive for All Americans - Even the Unborn
This past week I heard Alveda King on the radio talking about her uncle’s dream and insisting that Martin Luther King Jr. was pro-life in every sense of the term. She strongly believes in the dream and is working to bring the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to all American citizens, even the unborn. It is one thing for me as a man to speak against abortion, but it is quite another thing for a woman, who has had an abortion to tell us what she thinks about it. I am praying and hoping that more and more Americans, especially women, will listen to her and to other women, who know first-hand what abortion is. Alveda is not alone. She is merely one of a growing number of African women who truly believe that some of the abortion movement has been to eliminate the progeny of African Americans. Wow! That’s quite a claim! We live in interesting days. Our political moorings are crumbling and so we may see in the near future blue dogs in the Democratic Party do more to curb abortion than the waffling duffers of the grand old Republican party that recently had a soul and cried out on behalf of the unborn. But even more so, have we not learned over the years, that it is the person who has suffered through a travesty, who can speak to it and call for its abolition with a knowledge and passion that the rest of us cannot muster. I believe in a woman’s choice and I am presently listening to women who have chosen to speak candidly about their past abortions. Why not join me and start by listening to Alveda on youtube?
