Anti-Abortion Billboard Depicts Obama - A controversial anti-abortion billboard featuring an image of President Obama went up Wednesday in the South Side of Chicago. “Every 21 minutes, our next possible leader is aborted,” the poster reads. The Texas-based group Life Always defended using the president’s image during a news conference, arguing, “Our future leaders are being aborted at an alarming rate.” But the state’s Planned Parenthood disagreed, saying the billboards are “an offensive and condescending effort to stigmatize and shame African-American women while attempting to limit their ability to make private, personal medical decisions.” Life Always was also behind the controversial billboard in New York City of a young Black girl that read, “The most dangerous place for an African-American is in the womb.”   (Photo: courtesy Life Always)
