The Occupation of a Black Woman’s Womb

Good Morning!

It’s Friday and I’m looking forward to the weekend! However, before I go out to enjoy I wanted to share my latest published piece. In response to a Washington Post article published on Wednesday, I wrote an op-ed piece for Clutch Magazine;The Occupation of a Black Woman’s Womb.  

I vent about Congressman Trent Franks (AZ-R) proposed legislation on discriminatory abortion. In his mind he’s saving black women and their unborn babies, because we’re purposely aborting our babies due to our dislike that our baby is going to be the wrong sex or race. I know… sounds crazy right?  His beliefs are based on high abortion rates among black women.

When I first read the article I was furious. Instead of yelling and cursing to anyone that would listen, I constructed my thoughts for the op-ed.
