From the Paper:
" This paper is an examination of the relationship between abortion and race, specifically focusing on the differences between whites and blacks. Since the passage of Roe v. Wade in 1972 made abortion legal in the United States, women have had the option of ending an unwanted pregnancy. While few have chosen this option lightly, some have been more likely to consider abortion because of religious, social, cultural, and ethnic reasons than have others. In recent years, the national abortion rate has begun to decline slightly. Although the typical abortion patient remains a young, unmarried, white woman, the number of blacks and other minorities (especially Hispanics) is rising. A greater percentage of black women than white women chooses abortion, and a variety of social and cultural pressures make this proportion likely to continue to grow. "More papers on Abortion & Race:
