Abortion, the number-one killer of black Americans

Too Many Aborted, an initiative of the Radiance Foundation, released a short video earlier this year to expose the number-one cause of death in the black community in America. What is that cause of death? Abortion.

According to Too Many Aborted:

Dear Reader,

Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.

That number should break our hearts and move us to action.

Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.

Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.

Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.

Abortion is a human tragedy no matter the race, but nowhere in America is it more prevalent than in the Black community, where nearly 40% of all pregnancies end in induced abortion.

The following diagram is a still from the video that shows how abortion ranks with other causes of death in the black community – there is no other cause that comes even close to it:

Ryan Bomberger, co-founder of the Radiance Foundation, could have been part of that 40% statistic. He was conceived in rape, but his mother chose to give birth and place him for adoption. Bomberger believes that no child is unwanted, but that all children are wanted by someone:
