An anti-abortion group targeting African-American women has begun putting up dozens of billboards around metro Atlanta, declaring black children to be “an endangered species.”

This is what they look like:

SHREVEPORT, LA (KSLA) – "Black children are an endangered species," says Ryan Bomberger with Georgia's too many aborted campaign as he reads a huge billboard in the Atlanta Georgia area.

It's one thing to say it, but Bomberger put it on 80 billboards, and saw lots of controversy as a result.

"We believe we have to jolt not only the African American community, but the entire public," said Bomberger.

The jolt is even felt here in Shreveport, Louisiana.

"This is disgusting, and we won't tolerate it," said Dr. Artis Cash with National Action Network Shreveport chapter.

Cash says aside from it being a non issue in the black community, he says the claim insults the entire black community, he says the ad implies that more black women have abortions than white women.

"I think it's disgusting that we would use a black child in this way to try and get us on board in this anti abortion thing," said Cash.

But the backers of these huge and edgy signs believe millions have been aborted by black women, since the 70's.

"You've got millions and millions who are not here because of abortions," said Bomberger.

None of these signs have been seen in the Ark-La-Tex.

Cash says if that changes anytime soon, he'll lead numerous demonstrations against them.
