Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., once stated in an article “If Dr. King’s dream is to have true meaning, babies' civil rights must also be respected. Dr. King (MLK) once said, ‘The Negro cannot win if he is willing to sacrifice the futures of his children for immediate personal comfort and safety.’"1

It is a sad reality when any group of people are oppressed. When a group, that for whatever reason, has been unjustly misused, abused, look down upon and killed, this is tragic. It is especially tragic when the group is in a situation where they cannot speak for themselves.

Sadly, this is very much the case in our culture for children in the womb – unborn babies. In our culture, children in the womb are considered “Non – persons”. In our culture, a child in the womb can be legally killed at the wish of the parents.

Some would argue, “babies in the womb are not a race of people”. Well, why are they not? They are a group in our world – like other “groupings” of people who have been historically oppressed. They have been denied basic human rights because certain persons in our world decided they have no rights. Much like the Jews in Nazi Germany, women in the 1800’s and early 1900’s,African Americans from the founding of our nation up to through the 1960’s, unborn children have this in common. Certain individuals decided that they have no rights. Again, this is tragic, unjust and WRONG.
