=== Abortion's Impact on Black Lives (01:26) ===

[00:00:00]  This is Jakari Jackson for Infowars.com.
[00:00:02]  This week marks the anniversary for Roe v.
[00:00:05]  Wade, if you can call it an anniversary.
[00:00:07]  But now we see this article, Roe v.
[00:00:09]  Wade turns 42,000's march in opposition.
[00:00:12]  This is a march on Washington.
[00:00:14]  It's my understanding that this hasn't gotten much media attention for some reason, but we'll talk about it here.
[00:00:19]  Thousands rallied at the National Mall to protest Roe v.
[00:00:22]  Wade, which of course legalized abortion in our country.
[00:00:26]  We also have this article, House Passes Bill to Prohibit Federal Funding for Abortion.
[00:00:31]  And this is, while we're talking about abortion, this is somewhat of an aborted bill because we see House Republicans pulled a bill that would have banned abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy and instead, Thursday, passed less restrictive legislation to prohibit federal funding for abortion, which I am happy about that.
[00:00:47]  At least federal funds aren't going to fund abortion.
[00:00:50]  Abortion is something that's, you know, of course, a big issue in our country, a hot-button issue.
[00:00:55]  But especially when we think about the lives of blacks, we see a lot of Black Lives Matter protests and things such as that.
[00:01:02]  And I was very happy to see, looking at some Twitter images, people were out there with signs that says Black Lives Matter, Black Lives Matter, even in the case of abortion.
[00:01:10]  Especially when you consider blacks are pretty much the hardest hit by abortion.
[00:01:14]  NYC, more black babies killed by abortion than born.
[00:01:17]  And this is a 2012 study.
[00:01:20]  And it's not just in New York.
[00:01:21]  It's many other places across the country.
[00:01:23]  So I'm very happy to see the people out there protesting abortion.
