"These black lives do matter," said Catherine Davis to LifeSiteNews.

Davis is spearheading efforts by allied pro-life organizations Civil Rights for the Unborn, the Douglass Leadership Institute, and The Restoration Project to host the day of mourning. Davis, the Christian founder of the Restoration Project, has been active in the pro-life movement for decades as a post-abortive woman. She has testified before Congress on the eugenic goals of the Planned Parenthood to eliminate blacks. Among her projects is to ultimately charge Planned Parenthood with the crime of genocide, as defined by US federal statute.

The Day of Mourning will begin with a procession in Richmond, VA on August 30 and will end on August 31 in Birmingham, AL with stops in Raleigh and Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA. Women joining the event are asked to wear white to mourn the loss of the lives of black babies. Men are asked to wear black. The Day of Mourning will end with a prayer rally.

Noting the history of "skin color politics" in Virginia, Davis said a particular concern is the planned construction of an abortion facility in Church Hill, a majority black district in Richmond, the capital city.

It is being built close to Mount Olivet Church, a majority black congregation. Members of the congregation, Davis said, have demanded that the "facility" be moved elsewhere...
