San Diego officials have been slammed for spending public money on 'divisive and misleading' billboards telling black mothers that racism could hurt their babies - before they're even born.The billboards argue that racial discrimination is behind higher rates of miscarriages and maternal deaths among black women.They include claims that 'Our black babies are nearly 60% more likely to be premature due to discrimination' and 'Racism hurts your baby long before they're born'.Carl DeMaio, a former San Diego city councilmember and chairman of Reform California, a conservative political action committee, said the claims were not supported by data

Blacks abort pregnancies at something like five times the rate of whites. Are black birthing people racist because they don’t want to give birth to black babies? Are “San Diego officials” trying to do anything about this? Or are they just trying to further the “all whites are racist” narrative using taxpayer money? The answer is self evident.

Translation: You are a victim!!! You will always be a victim!!! Your children will always be victims!!! So you must stay on the Demon-Rat welfare plantation, because you are too stupid and weak to possibly rise above your victimhood because of all those evil old racist white people!!! So you have to depend on other white people like us to take care of you and remind you constantly that you are a victim and will always be a victim!!!!
The true worst enemy of black people in this country are white lie-beral Demon-Rats who will always see them as inferior helpless children that need the must more woke and superior lie-beral whites to take care of them!!!

From Fox News:
Dr. Wilma Wooten, the county’s public health officer, announced the program earlier this year while speaking on the issue of racism in maternal and neonatal health care, shortly after Democrats took control of the county board.
But the billboards went up sometime in the past two weeks, and while they include logos for county government agencies, the website’s "about" section lacks specific details about who funds and operates the program.
DeMaio is calling for the billboards to be taken down and whoever approved them to be "disciplined for an obscene lack of judgment" over the "dangerous and divisive message.”

Here is a photo of Dr. Wilma Wooten, Public Health Officer for San Diego County. I’ll bet two bits her fingerprints are all over this dreadfully damaging billboard project. And that she is a Democrat and a loyal BLM supporter.

San Diego "leadership" is a joke. The mayor is a leftist Tinker Bell and it goes downhill from there.

Since the majority of black babies are aborted this headline is probably true.

If the racist genocidal eugenist Democrats at Planned Parenthood have their way, your black baby will NEVER be born,

The overwhelming preponderance of children suffocated/crushed by co-sleeping with their mothers occurs in The Community. Talk about "racial discrimination."

Ironically, San Diego is probably the least-black city in the contiguous 48 states.

This is sad.
Surely Dr. Wooten knows that there are black children having babies - frequently before the child reaches menarche.
This happens when a girl is sexually active prior to her first period, doesn't know she is pregnant, especialy if she is obese, misses her period and doesn't know why, because she never has had one, the first doctor visit may take place well into her pregnancy.
In addition, it is a fact that in the hood, some girls intentionally use cocaine to give birth early. They become bored with pregnancy.
Then add in smoking of cigarettes and marijuana, plus use of other illegal substances, and even Dr. Wooten should be able to understand the scope of the problem.
When all of the above is ignored, and racism is stated as the cause, the problems cannot be solved.

Being massively overweight with high blood pressure and diabetes while pregnant can't be good your unborn baby. Yes, we have the fattest "poor" people in the world. The solution is simple -- get off welfare and food stamps, get out of your subsidized housing and get a job.
So in a way I agree with the billboards. What President Lyndon Johnson did to the black community in this nation with his massive Big Welfare programs was in fact racist.

My mother was a nurse. Part of her training was to make home visits to low income girls/women who were not keeping their prenatal visits. "I just didn't want to", "My boyfriend was coming by so I stayed home", "I didn't have anyone to watch my other 4 kids (all who were born out of wedlock), some were asleep, some were drunk, some were obviously using drugs. One of my mom's favorites was "You can't make me and no, I am not letting you in". This is your cultural problem so stop blaming others. I'm tired of this crap. They had free healthcare waiting for them. All they had to do was show up.

Sure there is a link between racism and premature birth. It runs through Planned Parenthood. Abortion weakens the uterus, by wrenching the muscles open when they are not ready for it. Abortion is way disproportionately African American girls and THAT is because PP aims its marketing at them. That's the link.
