Students at Emory University School of Medicine Object to Black Pro-Life Event
“a black feminist coalition accused the pro-life group of racism and sexism by even broaching the issue of race and abortion”
This is a vulnerable spot for the same leftists who support Black Lives Matter. They should be pressured to respond to the hypocrisy.
The College Fix reports:
Black pro-life event at Emory Medicine indefinitely postponed after deans intervene
Two months after Emory University School of Medicine deans reportedly pressured a pro-life student group to postpone an event on the black abortion rate, the group has yet to nail down a date – or even confirm the event will happen.
The invited speaker for the webinar “Is Abortion a Black Issue?” is a black woman, Toni McFadden (above), and Emory Medical Students for Life includes at least one black leader.
Yet a black feminist coalition accused the pro-life group of racism and sexism by even broaching the issue of race and abortion, and demanded the administration shut down the Nov. 2 event.
A month before The Emory Wheel reported on the dispute, Breitbart News said it had obtained the Oct. 29 letter to the Emory Med community demanding the cancellation of the event.
It said it also obtained emails from Erica Brownfield, associate dean of medical education, and Bill Eley, executive associate dean of medical education and student affairs, asking that “the talk be delayed until after the elections.”
Eley told the Wheel that the school supports “freedom of expression for all our students.” He did not address the administration’s reported role in the event’s indefinite postponement, saying the pro-life group “made the decision to postpone it” after “hearing the concerns voiced by fellow students.”

Guess the feminists aren’t familiar with the immaterial immortal eternal unique personal individual colorless weightless odorless indivisible indestructible, invisible, male or female phenomenon known as the human soul, and why should they be when it isn’t commonly known to exist.
Everyone has one but the marketing campaign has been aborted. Meanwhile abortion remains suicide by proxy and the enemies of the soul (and body) act like babies to get their way. Forfeiting the golden rule and natural law is a high price to pay.
Killing does that…
Makes no difference. Black people are amazingly self destructive and promoting abortion simply means less of them. Were it not for abortion, there’d be a few million more black people in the U.S.
Blacks have been about 12% of the population since the 1960’s and they’ll continue to be at that level or less in the future.
