That exploit and use slavery for their agenda need to remember

Enslaved Black women had abortions

They used the knowledge they had of herbs to help each other have abortions. Some enslaved women were so proficient in their knowledge of herbs (knowledge brought with them from Africa) , they became to go-to women for abortions. 

Its documented in some places in the Caribbean (and i think America), enslaved Black women were aborting so and had perfected it to such a level, there wasn’t enough children being born to be sold into slavery and some plantations were almost brought to their knees because of this.  In response, plantation owners set up incentives like giving freedom to enslaved Black women if they had a certain amount of children (i think it was 7) but they rarely ever got freedom and they tended to continue to move the amount of children they had to have to get freedom  

Another reminder: enslaved Black women sometimes purposefully had abortions not just so they won’t bring children into this world that would have to go through what they did, but to hurt the number of people being born into slavery and to bring down the plantations they were slaves on. 

Fucking white idiots 

Like your ass gives two shit about Black life
