Office of the Speaker – The Honorable John A. Boehner
ATTN: Katherine C. Haley, Assistant to the Speaker for Policy
Dear Katherine:
Thank you for taking time to meet with Pastor Luke Robinson, Rene’s Joseph, Patricia Hunter and me yesterday. Your sincere concern for public policy affecting life and family was evident, and we greatly appreciate you listening and sharing our concerns.
We applaud House Speaker Boehner and those who supported him to stop giving taxpayer monies to abortion providers. Defunding Planned Parenthood was not only an economically sound thing to do, it was the morally just thing to do. The racial agenda of elitists and population controllers have reduced the African American community to the point where our births have fallen below the replacement rate. When you see the documentary Maafa 21 – Black Genocide in 21st Century America, it will give you and the Speaker reliable documentation to distance congress from any support of this group’s agenda.
The word maafa is a Swahili word which refers to a horrible African holocaust tied to the oppression and suffering of slavery. While we cannot undo the past injustices of slaves, we can ensure that they are not continued today in other forms against the descendants of slaves.
As we stated, across this nation there are a number of Black pro-life groups and individuals who are willing to help you when needed to promote life and family issues. They include:
Dr. Haywood Robinson, MD – TX Former abortion participant until he became a Christian
Dr. Noreen Johnson, MD – TX Married to Dr. Robinson and also a former abortion participant
Dr. John Diggs, MD – MA Internist who writes abstinence literature and has testified before state legislators concerning the unhealthy and unnatural consequences of sodomy
Rev. Walter Hoye, Pastor – CA Arrested and won case for quietly picketing and offering help to women entering an abortion facility

Catherine Davis, Esq. – GA Network of Politically Active Christians and coordinator for National Black Pro-life Coalition (a coalition of various black pro-life and pro-family groups)
Rev. Dean Nelson – GA Former Director of Network of Politically Active Christian, recently joined CareNet
Paulette Roseboro – MD Founder & Director the African American Life Alliance

Rhonda Barnes – NC Founder of AFTERMATH post-abortion healing ministry

Donna Turner – NC Director LEARN Research Triangle (black group whose peaceful prayerful picketing contributed to the closing an abortion facility before it could open)
And there are more. If you need anyone of these people, you have access to all. It would also help you and the black community to see some of these folks stand with you when addressing PP. To hear some of them in action, visit YouTube and search their name.
Again, thank you for working to save this nation from the brink of destruction.
God blesses you!
