The Grammys Headline You DIDN’T Hear

Posted on by beautybeyondbones

Well, the Grammys were last night. And in true entertainment industry fashion, the stars just couldn’t help themselves from turning a would-be artistic celebration into a political drag fest, complete with roses, resistance letters, jabs and mockery.

Not to be out-shined by the Golden Globes, the music industry wanted to flex their political muscle, and did so, rather flatly, if I may be so bold.

But frankly, this is what I’ve come to expect from the entertainment industry elite. They have the answers, and will arrogantly make it known.

The low point of the night, in my opinion, was when they had all different celebrities reading from “Fire and Fury.” Including Hilary Clinton herself.

To me, it read as desperate, bitter and petty….

No shocker there. After all, it is Hilary Clinton.

But despite all the mockery and glorification of the liberal agenda, there was one bright spot among the entire evening.

A bight spot that you probably didn’t even know happened, because there were no major headlines about this brave woman and her controversial stand against an unpopular-with-the-left opinion.

Enter Joy Villa.

Truthfully, I had never heard of her before, but after her courage last night, you can bet your bottom dollar that I will be buying her album to support her!

Joy Villa wore a white dress that she had handpainted a fetus on. And on her purse, the words, “CHOOSE LIFE.”

And when asked about it, she said, “I am a pro-life woman…I’m all about life.”

BAM!

You hear that? It’s me giving this woman a standing ovation from my studio apartment in NYC.

Miss Villa gave up a child for adoption when she was 21 years old, and has since become a huge advocate for adoption over abortion.

Shop this look!

I can’t imagine the courage it took to wear that, to an event filled with literally, enough Planned Parenthood supporters to fill Madison Square Garden.

The woman’s got quite the nerve.

You go, Glenn Coco.

But it’s just baffling, isn’t it?

Her pro-life demonstration is nowhere to be found on the major news networks, minus Fox, of course.

It’s infuriating. Heaven forbid a woman stand up to protect the unborn. That’s going against liberal agenda. Kill the story.

And it’s funny how, just ten days ago, on Jan 19, hundreds of thousands of pro-life activists marched on Washington in the March for Life, to protest Roe V. Wade.

Of course, there was no coverage on that pro-life event either. As it was grossly overshadowed by the Women’s March the following day.

Which, to be clear: I’m all for women’s equality and equal pay and standing up to end sexual abuse and harassment – but isn’t it funny that a March dedicated to women coming together in unity, actively excludes pro-life, conservative women?

It is liberal hypocrisy at its best.

But that’s a topic for a different day.

I’m not here to bore you with abortion facts. Clearly, Blue Ivy had enough boredom last night for the rest of us.

All I know is that there was one courageous woman last night, standing up for those little babies.

 

Those 2,700 babies that will die today from abortion.

I will leave you with just one final thought.

Kendrick Lamar’s powerful performance about race, and U2 and Dave Chappelle’s comments on race have been receiving so much airtime and praise and headlines, as they rightfully should.

But if these far left news sources and industry elite would really like to tackle racism, how about confronting and taking a stand against the devastating toll abortion has deliberately taken on African American communities. Nearly half of all Black conceptions end in abortion. Take a look at where the Planned Parenthood centers are located in your community and decide for yourself.

Their support seems a little hypocritical now, dont’cha think?

Yeah, Hilary…you might want to rethink your support, too…

***Caveat: I am well aware that Planned Parenthood offers other services, besides abortions. However, PP is the largest abortion provider in the US, performing over 382,000 abortions per year. Yes, women should have access to free/safe healthcare and pregnancy resources. But why fund genocide in the process?***

  3. I am very much loving these posts Caralyn not afraid to speak openly about these topics where others wouldn’t. There is a lot we can’t seem to see lately it drives me crazy. Honestly we do have similar but different opinions on the topic, and I know I’m male so I wouldn’t really know about these things, like no uterus no opinion 😂

    2. I work in a fast paced high risk ob/gyn office, we do not support abortion but we offer some incredible Christian services to help women through their pregnancy with supplies, counseling, even jobs. We also help them through the adoption process if that is what they choose. My question(s) are these; why don’t we see more beautiful adoption stories after years of failed infertility treatments and surgeries?. Where are these beautiful families and why aren’t they celebrated? Also, you may not have a uterus but that fetus is your child also. What happens to those poor fathers who lose their child because the women “didn’t want it” fathers should have a choice as well, I’ve seen many devastated men dealing with abortion after maths. All in all, just my opinion. But I believe men are important in this topic as well!

  7. Not sure I agree with everything that is said here. It seems like you’re taking a dig at liberals? In any case, abortion is a tricky and controversial subject to talk about. Frankly, I just think that in most cases it is up to the woman if she would abort or give her child up for adoption, but I think it all depends on the situation. I don’t think we, the people, should be the ones making that decision for the woman on if she should or shouldn’t keep a baby, because do we really know what her situation is? Why should we even stick our noses in a situation that isn’t even ours to begin with? Just something to think about.

  13. I’m not sure I agree with everything you said. I’ve been to several Women’s marches and pro lifers were there standing up for their beliefs. I guess it’s just you don’t see the opposition much in photos at women’s marches. When it comes to rape or incest I feel the woman had a choice especially with that woman is young, as a still a minor. I have had read horror stories of fathers raping their daughter and the judge forcing that child who have and raise that child. I cannot even imagine….wow…I also know people who just got pregnant and use aboration as an escape clause, not these women, my mother included should have had to have their baby. They made the choice to sleep with that person and got pregnant. I just want those who are hurt to have a voice and a choice…I hope that makes sense. Thanks for you post!! 🙂

  16. Hi Caralyn Tank you for pointing this issue out. As you know left wing liberalism (socialism) Isn’t just an American thing It is global. I agree with you that abortion is genocide. It isn’t at all surprising that the media push the agenda of one side over the conservatives by way of ignoring them. One might call that the spirit of the world where they have given up the knowledge of God being turned over to their sin and they join with those who agree with them then encourage them. Roman’s chapter 1 speaks to this very issue.

    They may think they are enlightened and tolerant but as soon as they are exposed to the truth they either ignore it, dismiss it or attack it. Keep shining your light

    I’m a Canadian. You may or may not know that in Canada, there is no abortion law at all. A baby can be aborted literally up to the last minute before birth. How tragic. In fact, our liberal Prime Minister said recently that people who don’t agree with abortion, can’t really call themselves Canadian.

    What distorted thinking! How can it be that we have slipped so far that we can be considered unpatriotic and worse, because we believe that killing babies is wrong. Somehow we have become the “bad guys” for wanting to protect the most vulnerable among us. For speaking out for life.

    God’s Word commands us to speak up for those who cannot speak up for themselves ( Proverbs 31:8). He also commands us to pray for our leaders, since He is not willing that any should perish (1 Timothy 2:1-4). Thanks for speaking up.

    As for PP I’m not a fan. They do provide other services to those who can’t afford it but that’s not their priority. I’m a pharmacist and have to call them occasionally to check scripts. Unfortunately on their automated menu it’s “press 1 for abortion services” there’s no beating around the bush or calling it family planning. OB services is way down the list and not all their clinics offer them. But all their clinics offer abortions. So I say no matter what your political standpoint PP needs a change in agenda. Abortion should never be option 1.

  33. I think no one wants to be wrong. The half of all abortions are from African Americans is actually 58%. I read the Guttmacher study the coalition used for their stance in your link. The most likely to have an abortion are those females at or below the poverty level which is $12,000 a year and African American. They have the lowest education and are covered for reproductive health under Title X. Including birth control, breast exams and STI detection. Low education always links itself to poverty which then creates tough choices. A single new mother has to split $12,000 to care for her new child? My oldest kid cost $6,000 just to deliver her. Both of them in daycare was about $12,000 a year. It is a life and a very hard choice. The world, when you are poor is much much different to you especially single mothers. I agree with you, that media portrays what they want because the fans are already frenzied without facts.

    Well. Then we have adoption. About 15,000 unwanted kids are adopted each year. There were 652,000 abortions in that year of the Guttmacher study. Seems. Like, adoption could be an option if it was 40x larger.

    I was a foster kid. My mom. Was poor. She was a waitress at a nice club. The owner gave her clothes and she’d change there. She was taking care of my uncle. She didn’t ask to be pregnant with me. The club closed and she was raped on her way home. She couldn’t afford an abortion. But abortions are allowed for rape, if you could afford them. She quit school she was in tenth grade. She tried. No one hires a pregnant 16 year old with no education.

    She went to jail. I went to live with a foster family. They were in it for the paycheck. It smelled awful all the time. I moved. A lot. I found a family when I was five. They liked me a lot. My mom got out of jail and wanted me back. She had no job. Education. Home. Money. So. The state said, sure. We moved a lot. Her boyfriend’s hated me. I got good at hiding or just, never coming home. I was a paycheck.

    I never made it to college. I barely finished high school. Had there been better options, abortion, adoption, women’s health. I think my mom would have been a great mom. It wasn’t her fault. I don’t blame her. We just lost two generations because, we are poor. So. Think about the whole issue. I know you want kids someday but just, think.

      1. It is an issue that I would love to not be a part of, literally. To take away family planning though and tell poor women to just deal with it. Because you know better?

        It reaches that deeper stigma in our America. The divide that if the roles were different, if I was you. Maybe. In all your wisdom about life in Manhattan I’d agree. I worked near those factories you go clubbing at there. I’ve saw the nice cars pull up and drop off some cute girl late for her shift. I’ve saw her months later, pissed and pregnant. Would I want my crappy life for my kids? No. I know. In 36 years that nothing has changed for those in poverty. For those pregnant mothers.

        I’m not for abortion but I’m also not for poverty. They kind of go together. Think bigger.

  37. I enjoy reading your thoughts, your blog was one of the first I came across when pursuing the development of my voice on Mind, Spirit, & Man. I agree that the young lady taking a stance for pro life took much courage denouncing her own child in her younger life and all. However I dont think it hypocritical for Black Americans to voice their opinions on the subjects they were targeting. Kendrick Lamar has been speaking out against the violence in the black community and towrds blacks from the moment his voice was broadcasted and respected across the air waves. Along with Dave Chappell who has been dropping seeds of history, wisdom and eye opening situations in his most recent stand up specials on Netflix. Understand I am not a pro black mindset individual I was raised in the melting pot called Miami and didn’t get along to while with my own growing up. Yet bearing witness to the things I have seen as young man I am glad to call people of all backgrounds, shades, and tones family.
    However I do believe women have a choice to bring life into this world yet all situations dont lead to happy motherhood. Rap, abuse, drugs, poverty, lack of education, so and so forth. These situations take that choice away and good amount of the time make it not only unfair for the child being born into it but extremely hard for the mother. One out of four children under the age of eighteen is raised without a father, thats 17.2 million children roughly.
    Being a single mother is extremely hard, trust I know my wife used to be one, it took two years for her to adapted to leting me help her do just regular stuff with our oldest daughter.
    I have two beautiful daughters and couldn’t imgaine my life without them, yet I fear for their futures because of the state this country is in racially, ethically, and frankly spiritual. To much of anything is bad, there needs to be a balance other wise jealousy and greed will take over. Sadly I dont think it will happen in my life time.
    Any who sorry for the long post. Great read, great opinion and please keep it coming. I hope I didnt offend anyone I love everyone!! for we are all human and one in spirit.

  48. I came to this blog after you liked one of my posts and started following you because I was interested in your story about recovering from anorexia. I skimmed over a few of your posts and was so surprised when I read this one that I thought it might be fake. But as I see you’re responding to commenters, you must have actually written it. I just want to say one thing. If you want to be pro-life, that’s your right. But as a Black woman, I find your comment that abortion has “deliberately” taken a toll on Black communities EXTREMELY offensive. This is a tactic pro-lifers have used for years and it has absolutely nothing to do with concern for Black lives.

    Firstly, white women still have abortions at higher numbers than Black women. But statistics about abortions mean nothing. You know why? Because those numbers include women who wanted to have abortions but didn’t have access to them and women who wanted to carry their pregnancies to term but couldn’t afford to support a child. Furthermore, if you are so concerned about the lives of Black people, are you doing anything to dismantle white supremacy and worldwide antiBlack racism? If you care about Black mothers, are you fighting for paid maternity leave so Black women without means don’t have to go back to work two weeks after giving birth because they need the money? Are you fighting to make sure women who are incarcerated are not shackled during labor? Because if you’re not, you have to ask yourself if you’re really concerned about Black lives or just advancing a pro-life agenda.
