Black voters say recent Supreme Court decisions are a step backward, hurt Black people: theGrio/KFF survey

Alexis McGill Johnson, president of Planned Parenthood Action Fund, told theGrio that “Black voters understand that losing the right to abortion is a matter of racial and economic justice.”
In fact, the survey also found that about eight in ten Black voters say the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade is specifically a bad thing for Black women. And about four in ten Black voters believe it will have a bigger impact on Black women than white women.
Johnson recognized states across the south and midwest moved quickly to ban abortion, as it “has been acutely felt by Black communities that have been at the margins of all of these issues for generations.”
