CDC: 117,626 Black Children Killed by Abortion in One Year
(CNS News) -- The latest available data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), show that 117,626 black children were killed by surgical abortion in the U.S. in 2018, and these deaths accounted for 33.6% of the total abortions that year.
Moreover, these data were collected by the CDC from only 31 reporting areas in the country, which means the actual number of blacks killed by abortion is higher.
In the CDC report Abortion Surveillance -- United States, 2018, released in November 2020, Table 5 shows, "Reported abortions, by known race/ethnicity and reporting area of occurrence — selected reporting areas,* United States, 2018."
As the Table explains, "* Data from 31 reporting areas; excludes 21 reporting areas (California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York City, New York State, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, and Wyoming) that did not report, did not report by race/ethnicity, or did not meet reporting standards."
Nonetheless, the data show that from the 31 reporting areas, 117,626 of the surgical abortions in 2018 were of black children, which equals 33.6% of the total abortions.
For white children, 135,328 were killed by abortion (38.7% of total); Hispanics, 70,195 (20% of total); and Other, 26,975 abortions (7.7% of total).
The total number was 350,124 abortions. But that is for those identified by race/ethnicity, and only from the 31 areas that reported.
The CDC notes at the beginning of its document for 2018 that there were 619,591 abortions from 49 reporting areas. But even that number is low because it does not include the abortions that occurred in California, Maryland, and New Hampshire.
California is the largest state in the union in terms of population (39.7 million).

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, whites comprise 76.3% of the population; blacks comprise 13.4% of the population.

The same report showed that blacks comprise the largest percentage (27.5%) of violent criminal offenders against Asian-Americans. On the flip side, less than 0.1% of Asians are involved in violent crimes against blacks.
The report, Criminal Victimization, 2018, was released in September 2019. The latest update, Criminal Victimization, 2019, released in September 2020, does not break down the violent crime offenders and victims as was done in the 2018 report. (See Table 14 in Criminal Victimization, 2018.)
As the data in Table 14 of the 2018 report show, whites in 2018 were the victims in 3,581,360 violent incidents. In those incidents, 62.1% of the offenders were white, 15.3% were black, 10.2% were Hispanic, and 2.2% were Asian.
For blacks, they were victims in 563,940 violent incidents in 2018. In those incidents, 10.6% of their offenders were white, 70.3% were black, 7.9% were Hispanic, and <0.1% were Asian.
For Hispanics, they were victims in 734,410 violent incidents and for their offenders, 28.2% were white, 15.3% were black, 45.4% were other Hispanics; and only 0.6% were Asian.
For Asians, they were victims in 182,230 violent incidents in 2018. Among their offenders, 24.1% were white, 27.5% were black, 7.0% were Hispanic, and 24.1% were Asian.
For Asians, the largest percentage of their offenders were black.
For Hispanics, the largest percentage of their offenders were other Hispanics.
For blacks, the majority of their offenders were black.
And for whites, the majority of their offenders were white.
Among the violent incidents analyzed by the Justice Department, the crimes included rape, sexual assault, robbery, violent crime involving a weapon, domestic violence, and stranger violence. Homicides were not included because the DOJ interviewed the victims to gather its data.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, whites make up 76.3% of the population; blacks comprise 13.4%; Hispanics, 18.5%; and Asians, 5.9%. The total population, as of 2019, was 328,239,523.
