As Live Action News has previously reported, the latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) national abortion statistics paint a grim portrait for the Black community. In 2020, the most recent year for which data is available, the percentage of total reported abortions in the United States accounted for by the Black community was 39.2%, up from 38.4% in 2019. Meanwhile, Black Americans make up 14.2% of the U.S. population, according to the Pew Research Center, and Black women of reproductive age (15-44) compose just 18.1% of the total Black population, or 2.57% of the total U.S. population. In other words, less than 3% of the nation’s population is responsible for nearly 40% of the nation’s abortions.
