Usually when a member of the African American community steps out against the democrats and into the world of conservatism they get beat to a pulp, like Bill Cosby has been for speaking the truth about the failures of the black community by taking responsibility for their own problems and shortcomings instead of simply blaming the white man for everything that comes down the pike.
That would be the Jesse Jackson Al Sharpton school of thought of coarse.
However, two very prominent African Americans, Martin Luther King and now his own niece spoke and speak truthfully of the many ills plaguing them and one of the worst is abortion, that lazy persons form of birth control brought to the world by liberals and sustained by democrats which is the biggest enemy of the black community out there.

Martin Luther King, Jr's Niece: "Black Hopelessness Tied to Abortion: "
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- A new poll released by the Pew Research foundation finds that less than half of African Americans believe life will get better for them. Dr. Alveda King, the niece of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., says that hopelessness found in the black community is because of how abortion is adversely affecting it. King told LifeNews.com the hopelessness documented in the poll is linked in part to the high abortion rate in the black community.
'Children are the future. When you destroy your children, you destroy hope,' Dr. King said. 'The incredibly high number of abortions performed on black women in this country has to take a toll not just on the women involved, but also on their families, friends, and communities,' King explained.""The incredibly high number of abortions performed on black women in this country has to take a toll not just on the women involved, but also on their families, friends, and communities," King explained.
"If African Americans feel that life will not get better, I have to believe that abortion is feeding into that hopelessness," she told LifeNews.com.
Alveda King isn't just speaking theoretically, but knows from personal experience the damage abortion can do to women and families.
"I know from personal experience that abortion causes depression, regret, and despair," she explained about her own abortion.
Yet in that regret and dismay over a past abortion, King knows women can find hope and healing.
"I also know from personal experience that this despair can be healed and the wounded can be brought back to joy and hope through faith," she said.
King said African Americans should concentrate on efforts to reduce or stop abortions in order to restore the black community's hope.
"What I want the government to do is guarantee our basic rights and the most basic right is the right to life. If we love and welcome our children, optimism for the future can only increase," King concluded.
