What happens when a woman who is in the perfect position to further Planned Parenthood’s agenda ascends to the presidency of a southern medical school? Planned Parenthood pulls out all the stops to celebrate her inauguration, anticipating the training of future abortionists, of course!
“We’re excited and honored to celebrate Dr. Montgomery Rice during her historical inauguration this week,” said Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, in a press release. The occasion was Rice’s elevation to the presidency of Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia.
“Throughout [Dr. Rice’s] career, she has shown dedication to preventive and reproductive care research and has gained much respect among her peers and medical community. Leaders like Dr. Montgomery Rice are needed to help us train the next generation of medical providers to ensure a healthy America,” Richards concluded. Of course, the only “medical providers” Planned Parenthood is really interested in training are abortionists and those who promote Planned Parenthood’s morally bereft sex training, birth control, and abortion agenda.
Meharry Medical College, where Rice was formerly medical school dean and senior vice president of health affairs, is listed on the Medical Students for Choice website among medical schools that have residency programs that include abortion training.
Planned Parenthood co-sponsored Rice’s three-day long inaugural celebration. Richards herself was the inaugural guest speaker for Rice’s new “Conversation of Significance” series that will span the next year “highlighting women leaders in the health world.” Choosing the head of the nation’s largest abortion chain as the inaugural guest for her series, coupled with the abortionist-training medical school program Dr. Rice presided over as dean at Meharry, certainly calls into question Dr. Rice’s notion of women’s health.
Planned Parenthood’s political arm honored Dr. Rice on its webpage, along with Michelle Obama, the New York president of NOW, and a litany of its friends and supporters among 22 “Do-ers” for Black History Month in February 2014.
The local PP affiliate, Planned Parenthood Southeast, sprawls across Georgia, Mississippi, and Alabama, prime target states for Planned Parenthood’s population control programs. Forty-six percent of its 2013 clientele were black.
It boasts of its political purposes and might in its annual report, saying that it is “building a reproductive freedom movement across the Southeast, working to ensure that no woman will have a politician come between herself and her doctor.” The annual report completely avoids mention of how many abortions the organization committed in 2013.

“Planned Parenthood Southeast looks forward to working closely with Morehouse School of Medicine,” said Staci Fox, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Southeast. “We stand in celebration with Morehouse during this momentous occasion and are honored to support the inauguration of Dr. Montgomery Rice, an esteemed leader and visionary partner in our shared work [emphasis added] on preventive care and wellness.”
Planned Parenthood’s VP for external medical affairs, Dr. Vanessa Cullins, got in on the accolades, shining the spotlight on the college’s reputation for educating “leaders of the African-American community.”
“I’m looking forward to a new generation of medical providers who will work to improve health outcomes for our communities,” Cullins said. She continued, “Studies show that minorities trust their health care providers more when they can identify with them. Part of the solution for the South is to provide greater access to health care, and to ensure that medical providers are a part of the social and cultural fabrics of southern communities.” Certainly, it has been a Planned Parenthood strategy since the days of Margaret Sanger to ease into the culture of black populations and gain their trust in order to impose PP’s population control programs on them.
You may remember Dr. Cullins as the Planned Parenthood physician who glibly told teens in a 2009 Let’s Talk about Sex video, “Expect to have HPV once you become sexually intimate. All of us get it.”
Planned Parenthood has its tentacles out in every community and every college, looking for opportunities to expand its abortion business. Constant vigilance is required on every level, and those who oppose Planned Parenthood must constantly regroup and refocus to oppose the abortion giant’s agenda. We can never become complacent. Wherever Planned Parenthood is, there we must be also. For help stopping Planned Parenthood in your community, contact [email protected].
In the meantime, we pray that Dr. Rice will disappoint Planned Parenthood, refuse to work with the abortion giant in any way, and particularly not implement abortion training at Morehouse.
