"Your mother and I will do everything we have to do to help you in making right choices from now on," McGarvey, 62, told his daughter. "Regardless of the human side of conception, every child is a creation of God...thus a gift and a reward."

 

Having never forgotten his promise, these days McGarvey divides his time between caring for his 8-month-old grandson and speaking out about the clandestine agenda related to abortion - an agenda that has been kept mostly hidden since the post-abolition era.

 

The main tool in his arsenal is a film called Maafa 21, released last June by Texas-based pro-life organization Life Dynamics. It is a documentary citing the history of contraception and the abortion movement in the United States, which is inextricably linked it to a strategic effort of cleansing American society of the undesirable Black race.

 

Armed with research proving abortion is modern-day Black genocide, McGarvey is one of the few White men leading the anti-abortion effort in Florida using this unique approach.

 

"Of all the African-American pastors I have met with since doing this work, I have met only one who knew of Black genocide," said McGarvey. "And, it is the same among White pastors."

 

Maafa 21 describes Margaret Sanger, one of the first birth control activists in the early 1900s and the founder of the American Birth Control League, as someone who strategically targeted Negro clergymen for the great influence they had in Black communities nationwide. They would serve as foot soldiers to propogate her messages of contraception and abortion within the church.

 

As documented in the film, Sanger used diverse methods of negative eugenics or "skewing of the human gene pool toward the more desired race." Her American Birth Control League would eventually become Planned Parenthood, the organization that operates the nation's largest chain of abortion clinics - almost 80 percent of which are located in minority neighborhoods.

 

"These same eugenecists became board members of Planned Parenthood. Once it became legalized, abortion was marketed to the masses through the message of family planning," said McGarvey.

 

In America today, a Black baby is three times more likely to be murdered in the womb than a White baby. And, since 1973, abortion has reduced the Black population by over 25 percent.

 

Uncovered as a secret plan that has killed more Blacks than have ever been killed in Ku Klux Klan history, McGarvey is convinced that abortion is a genocidal act targeting Blacks in America.

 

"Pro-choice advocates claim the term is different than pro-abortion, but if rape was made legal in this country, would you stand by and say it is the man's choice to rape who and when he wants to?" said McGarvey.

 

Until May of this year, McGarvey was the Director of Development at the Hope Women's Center - a faith-based pregnancy resource center which operated five clinics out of the South Florida area.

 

Two were recently closed because of cutbacks in donations. 

 

At Hope, counselors share with abortion-vulnerable women the full ramifications of abortion and pregnancy.

 

The clinic offers a free limited obstetrical ultrasound to determine if it is a viable pregnancy. Usually, 29% of women who receive this counseling change their minds about abortion. The percentage shoots up to about 89% after seeing their unborn child on a screen and hearing its heartbeat.

 

McGarvey also denounces the theory that "all pro-lifers care about are babies."

 

"We are very involved in practial help. My message to the church is, you've got to be prepared to do more than just say abortion's evil," said McGarvey.

 

For example, Hope Women's Center is connected with various ministries in South Florida which house young women who have been thrown out of their homes because of unwanted pregnancy; they provide them with skills for the workforce and they keep they and their newborns up to six months after delivery.

 

McGarvey recalls the day a 23-year-old girl came in to the Hope Center clinic, thinking it was an abortion center.

 

"In the counseling process, she realized we weren't and that we were in fact a Christian ministry. She began to cry," he said.

 

It turned out, the girl was a Christian as well as a leader of the youth and dance ministries at her church. She came in hoping to abort the child to cover her shame. A counselor encouraged her not to do this and instead make her condition known to her church leaders.

 

McGarvey, of all people, recognizes the shame associated with bearing a child as an unwed mother in the church; this was why his own daughter stopped attending his church for a while after becoming pregnant.

 

"But, this is why we can't take the high road, say it's wrong and leave it at that," said McGarvey. "We also have to do everything humanly possible to provide the support and care at a practical level."
