Another billboard campaign to draw attention to the abortion statistics among African-Americans in the U.S. is under way, and the first billboard has gone up in Atlanta.
Catherine Davis of the Restoration Project tells OneNewsNow the "Betrayed" billboard campaign addresses the fact that something is wrong in the black community when it comes to abortion.
"No matter what state you look at that reports by numbers, you see a horrific pattern has been established, and black women are aborting their babies at two, three, sometimes five times their presence in the population and/or five times the rate of other ethnic groups," she reports.
Davis is convinced the abortion industry is targeting the black population, but she wonders why an uproar from black leaders is lacking.
"If this were alcohol or tobacco, we would have African-Americans marching in the street. But because it's abortion, they are not willing to examine this question, and they're turning a blind eye, and we are asking why that is," she explains.
The pro-lifer concludes that the difficult questions must be answered by the black leadership. So she has helped develop the strategy to raise billboards in several major cities to inform the black community of the devastation wrought on African-Americans through abortion.
