An injustice is happening right now in Dallas that demands our attention. The Afiya Center put up a billboard in Downtown Dallas, which reads: ABORTION IS SELF-CARE.
Human Coalition has made it our mission to be change agents by boldly standing for life and reaching abortion-determined women with grace and truth. But clearly those in the abortion industry are working just as hard to mislead women and destroy the precious lives they are carrying, by labeling abortion as “self-care.” What a gross injustice to try and mislead black women with this type of propaganda.
The billboard’s message promotes and justifies aborting preborn children as a means of self-care. This twisted concept of destroying an innocent life as a way of taking care of one’s self is misleading to women and an affront to the divine value of life. “Self-care” that extinguishes a beating heart demands our response. This billboard’s message must be silenced with truth and compassion that comes from meeting abortion-determined women where they are.
Furthermore, this billboard advocates aborting black children. How can this not be considered a racial issue? It targets one race and encourages that race to exterminate themselves. The advertisement compares having an abortion to something like a day at the spa. The real message here is that a pro-abortion women’s advocacy group is promoting the purposeful extinction of black children.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an African-American woman is almost five times more likely to have an abortion than a white woman, and a Latina woman is more than twice as likely. So how can we not feel this is a direct message to extinguish a race? What greater threat is there than encouraging a woman to terminate the life of her child?
The very notion that something like abortion – which damages a woman’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being – is a form of “self-care” must be met with opposition and truth.
At Human Coalition, we intentionally reach out to abortion-determined women in some of our nation’s most abortion-plagued cities. And in some cases, we are located just a few blocks away from Planned Parenthood and other big billboards promoting abortion.
We must stand up for preborn children and their rights because they are voiceless human beings and possess divine value.
To equate the taking of a child’s life to routine self-care reduces the value of all human life.
To equate the taking of a child’s life to routine self-care reduces the value of all human life. Click To TweetAt what point is one life deemed to be of lesser value than another if we continue to devalue the life of the preborn?
As Martin Luther King said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
Abortion is not self-care. It is an injustice to innocent preborn children, to the women who are being manipulated into believing this terrible lie, and to the families who are left to navigate the devastation of abortion.
Abortion destroys lives, legacies, and entire generations of people. Anything that destroys life cannot be equated with “self-care.”

Feminism has become a perverted pro-abortion lobby. Women today can reject feminism.
To me, it seems an insult to black women
The Afiya Center is promoting murder the same as what planned parenthood does !! We Must protect and care for the babies even when they are propagated by our own lusting !!! Lusting for love and self preservation is Wrong !!! Just read the Bible and learn why !!!! However,… Read more »
I want to know why the Supreme Court Justices who allowed abortion in the first place weren’t all sent to the penitentiary because no where in the constitution does it allow murder or advocated for sure
This is exactly what Margaret Sanger was after in the first place, population control in Black communities. I’m so surprised at this blatan, but veiled, admission on a billboard. It’s so obvious what the intent is here. People everywhere should be appalled. Take the blinders off people; this hypocricy is… Read more »
I have known for several years now that the abortion industry has targeted blacks more than any other race. Abortion is MURDER, plain and simple !!!!!!!!
I wonder . . ?.?. Why is it “African-American” woman; and Latina-woman; but yet compared to white-woman?
Answer me that,,, A little RACISM maybe, ????
I’m guessing because the “white women” have the lowest number and that’s usually how statistics and ratios work? Ex: 2:1 ; if anything the author seemed to be against the racial notion…
European-American would work too, but they would still be just as white.
I am livid! I saw one in south Dallas, on I 20. In fact, I will be taking a picture of it today, and posting it myself! I was horrified, and could hardly even comprehend what I had just read!!!
In the billboard the three women are smiling. I am a woman who had two abortions in my teenage years. I speak with other women who chose to have an abortion and I have not seen any of them smiling about the choice they made. We all had tears falling… Read more »
Jama – you’ve made a very important point. The overwhelming majority of women we work with who have had abortions deal with pain, suffering and guilt – not the emotions conveyed on the billboard.
BLACK LIVES MATTER!
ALL lives matter!!!
What an insult to the African-American population. Where are the Black Lives Matter people?
I read something about this billboard at least 2 months ago. I cannot believe it is still up. It’s disgraceful.
This billboard should be seen as a poorly disguised effort to manipulate black women into not reproducing. It suggests that black women have more than an option to end their pregnancies, they actually have a RESPONSIBILITY to do so. These women should be appalled that they are being targeted in… Read more »
Well done! This is almost as terrible as China selling pickled fetuses as health food.
No GOD, no commandments, no morality, no rule of law but holocaust of innocent babies, carrector assesination, lies, perverse lifestyles Pedophylia, rape, riots, etc The previous centuries were much better then the 20 and 21 centuries Sacred Heart if Jesus have mercy on us; immaculate Heart of Mary pray for… Read more »
I am so sorry for these misinformed ladies, and so upset at the group that is misleading them. No person lives alone. Actions have consequences. One of these misinformed murders may have murdered our chance for a cure for aids, stroke, heart attacks, all types of cancers, by murdering the… Read more »
No; abortion is NOT “self-care”; it’s incredibly selfish, yes, but self-care would demand, not just request, a facility that meets the SAME standards of staffing, cleanliness, and hospital affiliation as any and all other outpatient surgical facilities are required to maintain, for your own health and safety! You’d be better… Read more »
More people everywhere need to know who and what Margaret Sanger was. To think that Hillary Clinton stated that Margaret Sanger was her hero says much about some of the political elite who support and promote abortion.
Self-care is controlling one’s reproductive organs so as to avoid getting pregnant in the first place. Murdering one’s preborn baby is taking care of oneself? Hardly!!
Thank you so much, Dr. Wines— What was this whole debacle concerning an attempt to “judge the judge” without evidence, other than a pathetic cry of “Let us kill our babies!” This is sadly what the majority of Democrats have been brainwashed to think of as their right and a… Read more »
Thank you for showing us that billboard. It is another example of injustice against the beautiful women that God has created and their children. God help us and forgive us as a nation for this travesty.
Planned Parenthood was established to eradicate Black people in America. Obviously, this organization is following suit.
I am sickened by this and all abortion. I hope and pray that women everywhere wake up and see the lies in this billboard and the misleading ways of “Planned Parenthood”. God forbid this gets worse!
We are in the last days as prophesied in the Bible. I can’t imagine how our precious Lord is grieved over all these precious babies being butchered in the womb. People that He created to be loved by their parents. .- It is too horrible to imagine the terror that… Read more »
I completely agree– this is SO disturbing. The problem is that we conceal the truth about abortion, and if we are told, we dismiss it.
I so agree with your article. This ad is targeting black women. This is so wrong as they target Latino women or white women also, but not to this degree. How can we get people to see that abortion is not women’s health care, it is a convenience to stop… Read more »
Every law has a number, so what is the number of the LAW that allows a women to murder her unborn child?? There is none! The Supreme Court Roe V Wade decision says that a woman has the constitutional right to control her reproductive organs. That is not a law,… Read more »
Jerry u are so on it! This is why the Supreme Court is so important to the progressives, they have found that making law is harder and takes longer through the legislative branch and ramming through the Judicial branch is easier and faster. This is also why activist judges like… Read more »
Thank God almighty Himself Brett Kavanaugh was put into place!!!
Was that not Planned Parenthood’s founder ‘s goal to get rid of the black race ? Lord Have Mercy on your precious people.
That was exactly what Margaret Sanger was after
Margaret Sanger was the founder. She is the one that Hillary ‘most admired’.
This pisses me off as a woman expspecially as a Black woman. I can’t believe these women do not see the agenda of the racist leftist humanist. Who do not believe in God, they believe in population control want to rid the world who they feel are not good enough… Read more »
These beautiful young ladies on this billboard I’m sure have had no abortion that’s the biggest lie of the billboard. Killing your baby and causing yourself life long trauma is not taking care of yourself. Women should ask themselves before abortion about why do I want to kill my baby?… Read more »
I Agree
Totally agree! Disguising abortion as “women’s health care” is detestable. And genocide at the very least. It’s like Hitler’s plan to create a “Master race.” How stupid do they think we are. Someone said “How could so many people be persuaded into murdering so many Jewish people and not be… Read more »
As I read this attempt to advertise abortion as a luxury to women, it dawned on me that the very core of planned parent hood’s purpose is to reduce the population, then read they are targeting African American women, it reminds me of the racism and hate for the culture.… Read more »
I agree; some also call abortion “healthcare.” it is no such thing. Healthcare is a group of actions taken to maintain the good health of a human being. Abortion is the taking of an innocent helpless human life. The billboards you mentioned are a definite racist act. Obviously the young… Read more »
Splendidly written! Could it be that the propagandists chose that location, because they knew your office to be close by? Like they decided to summon their defeat…
They chose the area because it is in a predominantly black area of Dallas.
ALL LIVES MATTER
Unborn Lives Matter:-)
Abortion is MURDER plain and simple. It should be against the law. Defeat all left wing radical liberal demonrats and get abill passed to end abortion.
What would happen if someone filed a felony report, with the police department, for murder by an abortion clinic? Would they be forced to prove the child was tissue? The problem may have been the debate defining a human instead of defining murder. Proving the humanness, of the tissue, placed… Read more »
