Ep. 10 - The eugenics of abortion, with Gloria Purvis and Prof. Carter Snead

from Conversations with Consequences

Is abortion good for minority women and minority communities? Is it possible to be a woman of color and be pro-life? How does an abortion culture affect the disabled? "Big Abortion" is inherently racist, from its inception by the infamous eugenicist Margaret Sanger to today, with most Planned Parenthood clinics located in minority neighborhoods. Today’s guests Gloria Purvis and Notre Dame Professor Carter Snead, along with the Catholic Association’s Grazie Christie and Andrea Picciotti-Bayer, discuss the eugenic history and present of abortion. We also examine a well-written opinion by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in a recent case involving selective abortion, Box v. Planned Parenthood, where he laid out the long and sordid history of Planned Parenthood and its decades-long attack on children of color.  Helpful links: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/18pdf/18-483_3d9g.pdf https://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/063018.cfm https://ewtnmorningglory.com/ https://www.c-span.org/person/?graziechristie https://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2019/01/48245/ Links to TCA clips: https://www.politico.com/story/2019/06/21/joe-biden-abortion-hyde-amendment-1543804 https://www.wsj.com/articles/cradles-pews-and-the-societal-shifts-coming-to-politics-11561382477
