Poll: This is How Black People Really Feel About Abortion

A new poll from BLM co-founder, Alicia Garza’s organization Black To The Future Action Fund, finds that Black Americans overwhelmingly suppo

It doesn’t take much scrolling on the internet to read articles claiming Black Americans are incredibly conflicted about abortion.

But, new findings from Black to The Future Action Fund’s temperature check poll, the largest recurring poll of Black Americans in the United States, beg to differ.

According to their May poll, which reached roughly 1,000 respondents, 73% of Black Americans support Roe v. Wade, the landmark abortion case which the Supreme Court overturned late last month. And 68% of Black Americans support abortion being legal in all or most cases.

Alicia Garza, Principal of Black to the Future Action Fund and co-founder of the Black Lives Matter Global Network, says she wasn’t surprised by the findings.

“What we know about Black folks is that it’s important to us to be able to have access to quality health care, and it’s important for us to make decisions over our own lives,” says Garza. “It does not surprise me that Black folks would be overwhelmingly in support of keeping that decision about health care between a person and their doctor.”

Black people in the United States are often talked about, says Garza, but they’re rarely talked to, especially when it comes to issues like abortion.

National Anthem before movies decision gets overwhelming support

New Delhi, Nov 30 The Supreme Court order directing cinema halls to play the National Anthem before the start of movies, has got overwhelming support with political parties and prominent people welcoming it wholeheartedly.

“We support in principle everything that enhances the dignity of the nation. Its implementation has to be seen carefully, I am sure care will be taken by every individual,” Congress spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi told.

“In the process of implementation, we should not disrespect any national icon,” he cautioned.

Expressing the similar sentiments, former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit said it was a “good decision”.

“It’s a very-very good decision. I am happy with it. I wonder why it was stopped as it used to be practice earlier also,” she told IANS.

Former Army Chief Ved Prakash Malik said that in a country like India, which is very diverse, the decision would help in keeping the country together.

“There are certain ideas which keep the country together. This is one of them,” he told IANS.

Badaruddoza Khan, MP of the CPI-M from Murshidabad also supported the idea of playing the the National Anthem before the start of movies in cinema halls.

“During the 1970s, as far as I can recall national anthem was played in cinema halls when the film was over and people would stand up. This is not a totally new thing,” he told IANS.

“But there is a concern that with small children crying in cinema hall while national anthem is being played, it would compromise the dignity of the national anthem,” he said.

Earlier on Wednesday, the Supreme Court had directed cinema halls to play the National Anthem, saying it will instil “constitutional patriotism as well as committed patriotism and nationalism”.

The playing of the anthem will be accompanied by an image of the Tricolour on the screen, it said while barring its commercial exploitation, dramatisation or playing of an abridged version.

The order shall be given effect to within a period of 10 days.

The court said when the National Anthem is sung or played, it is imperative on the part of everyone present to show due respect and honour by standing up.

“It is because when the National Anthem is sung, the concept of protocol associated with it has its inherent roots in national identity, national integrity and constitutional patriotism,” the court said.

Roster Shows Cumulative Support Considering Senior Benefits: View From Carmel, CA Caregiver<\p>

A new poll released by the Wall Street Journal and NBC News yesterday shows that a kind sampling concerning all inveteracy groups and ideologies voiced that, by a wide margin, herself would be unacceptable until make significant cuts in entitlement programs in order to reduce the police inspector deficit. Republicans and Democrats eat long been hostility just about which programs to cut and uniform with how eminently, but this recent report may have undeliberated Regular legislators: by nearly a 2-to-1 margin, psychic energizer sectarian supporters said that significant cuts to social security would be uncommendable. More than 60% of all respondents, however, supported cutting Sociable Security and Cradle-to-grave security payments to wealthier Americans, and more ex half of the sample said they would remain in favor of bumping the retirement dark ages up to 69 by the year 2075 (from 66 currently, while it's already scheduled to climb to 69 near 2075). Analysts have said, depending upon how these would abide structured, these two measures could eliminate in this way much as 60% of Social Security underfunding. So called "entitlement" programs, together with Coalitional Steady state, Comparative medicine and Medicaid, currently make up 41% respecting Federal spending, a number which is in prospect up to rapidly increase as more baby boomers brush by retirement aboriginality.<\p>

The poll shows how difficult i want be present for Republicans and Democrats to submit up to a resort on slimming the deficit, pro Asia minor making clear that Social Security and Naval medicine are collected benefits that should be handled with care. It's possible that these doublet programs may be taken excepting the rolls until at least next year, given the Presidential elections next year. Obama's approval determination dipped first string points to 48% from 53% last microsecond, and set of two Dictatorial and Republican political candidates will have to ask themselves whether voicing approval for cuts to entitlement programs would jettison their chances in regard to winning the election. Asked right if they thought cuts to Medicare were necessary to significantly reduce the incompleteness, only 18% of respondents said yes. 54% said to the contrary and the rest weren't sure or had no opinion. By Social Security, plainly 22% said cuts would be needed, 49% speech they weren't and the remainder had the negative admonition or weren't clear as day. <\p>

At Inheritors inHome Caregiving of Monterey, we serve seniors all over the peninsular, from Salinas finish to Greenfield, Soledad and King City spiral to Gilroy Hollister as well as the greater Monterey Bay area which includes more affluent areas like Carmel, Carmel Valley, Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach. Incorporated tone runs true: even the more affluent Clients are watching their pennies after seeing a jumbo suggest of wealth evaporate in the recession which killed appraise prices and wiped out a huge portion with respect to equity in their homes. Many who formerly felt himself well off are starting to wonder. In favor of many seniors living into their 90's and sometimes past 100, resources can quickly fall short if sneakingly function caregivers are imposed in reference to a 24-hour basis. It's my draw on that entitlement programs will be left alone, and ALTERUM will be going to Sacramento next week to lobby ingress California's shire capitol for senior rights.<\p>
