Diary of a Black Pro-Lifer: Pacific Northwest

“You of all people should know!” was his greeting.

by Jacqueline Hawkins

Something that was rather bothersome about the Pacific Northwest tour was the common occurrence of white people telling me how bad I had it as a black person.  It was a mixture of white guilt, virtue signaling, and racism.

“Oh, the poor stupid black animals can’t take care of themselves so we’ll sit in our little classes and talk about how bad off they are and how vital killing their children is and pat ourselves on the back for having such righteous thoughts.”

Little did they know, when it came to me, they were talking to a victor, not a victim.  That left them scrambling to save face again and again.  Check out this conversation had at Salt Lake Community College that epitomizes the conversations I ran into time and time again.

Student:  “I’m sure you know how hard it is to vote as a black person.  African Americans live in such a way and I’m sure you’ve been through this in your life.  There is a level of discrimination in how the voting process works.”

Me:  “I’ve never had issues with voting.”

Student:  “Oh, I mean as a woman or as a person. We all go through it.  African Americans and Latinos go through it the worst because they on average live in higher crime or lower income areas.  “Right now, they are the least voting people because of systemic racism.  The system puts them down so they can’t vote.”

Me:  “So, they can’t vote at all?”

Student:  “It’s harder to vote. If you don’t have the money to buy ID then how can you go vote?”

Me:  “See all my family is black and we don’t have issues with voting.  O r buying IDs.  IDs are cheap.”

Student (dismissively):  “Oh, Utah’s better than some places.”

Me:  “I’m from Virginia. And my family in Georgia, Florida and DC have not had issues either.  A lot of the time white people think black people are a certain way and can’t take care of themselves but then you ask a bunch of black people and they say they have no issues.”

Student:  “That’s not what I meant.”

Me:  “You said that black people are just so bad off.”

Student:  “That’s not what I said. That’s out of context.”

At The Evergreen State College, a student told Joanna that she had never taken anyone white to have an abortion, but she did take three black friends to have abortions.  According to her, they had no hope because they were black.  White people had lots of hope and therefore didn’t need abortions unless there was something wrong with the baby.  But black people?  Well they had no hope of a decent future so it was best to cull them.

While the young woman had the best intentions at heart, like the young woman in Utah, the mentality that black people are stupid, down-trodden, animals in need of the great white hope is the same in both cases.

Even more tragically, their “help” often takes the form of the grim reaper.

Pro-Life on Campus in the Pacific Northwest

Fascists tried to shut us down at the U of Oregon.  Some wore masks but most wore camouflage, i.e., regular (non-brown) shirts in an attempt to look like law-abiding Americans. The Administration sided with the fascists until they realized we would sue and win, just like we did at the U of Buffalo.  Game.  Set.  Match.

CBR took our GAP show on the road to the upper left-hand corner of the United States.  And boy was it ever left!

Here is the first of a series of reports.  The 7 schools we tackled:

  • Boise State University in Idaho—6 out of 10 moonbats on our scale of craziness.
  • Weber State University in Utah—4 moonbats
  • Salt Lake Community College in Utah—5 moonbats
  • Lane Community College in Oregon—7 moonbats
  • The Evergreen State College in Washington State—7 moonbats
  • Portland State University in Oregon—9 moonbats
  • University of Oregon in Oregon—7 moonbats

There is a frenzied “blizzard” going on, even today, throughout the Pacific Northwest.  Snowflakes are everywhere!  Men in drag.  Fascists hiding behind masks.  Objects hurled at us from all directions — bloody tampons, seafoam green paint, and water bottles.  A man with a large knife cut up one of our warning signs.

But as William Wilberforce said, they can never again say they did not know.

Throughout this trip, we displayed several of our ALL Black Lives Matter (ABLM) signs and challenged pro-aborts to defend their vicious attack on the African American family.
