The Double Standard of the Actions of Planned Parenthood on Black History Month | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

February is Black History Month, when we honor the triumphs and struggles of African Americans throughout US history. As civil rights groups across the nation observe the occasion others question if the actions of groups like Planned Parenthood tell a different story. Research fellow at the Heritage Foundation's Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Religion and Family, Delano Squires, is calling out a double standard here. On one hand the cry for Black Lives Matter and on the other hand abortion on demand. Squires joins to talk about these messages that are so at odds with each other. Some groups like Planned Parenthood have pretty racist roots. Squires shares more on that and whether the same rings true today. He tells us whether African American women are more often focused on abortion advocates. As a candidate for president, Obama spoke openly about marriage, family and fatherhood. Fast forward to present day and his recent reflections on the 50th anniversary of Roe v Wade. Squires discusses what this signals. The research fellow is a fan of something called the "success sequence." He fills us in on what that means and why he thinks it's the way forward here.
