Facts about Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood:

(Though much quoted herein is old, I will show later that Planned
Parenthood today vigorously upholds Sanger's philosophy.)

Margaret Sanger said about her 1939 <Negro Project>, "We do not want
word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and
the minister is the man who can straighten out the idea if it ever
occurs to any of their more rebellious members." [1]

Clarence Gamble, president of the American Eugenics Research
Association, said, "There is a great danger that we will fail because
the Negroes think it a plan for extermination. Hence lets appear to
let the colored run it as we appear to let [the] south do the
conference in Atlanta."[2] Under this policy, Planned Parenthood of
America hired a full-time "Negro Consultant" in 1944.[3]

The entire operation [Sanger's 1939 Negro Project] then was a ruse--a
manipulative attempt to get Blacks to cooperate in their own
elimination.

The project was quite successful. Its genocidal intentions were
carefully camouflaged beneath several layers of condescending
social-service rhetoric and organizational expertise. . . Soon
clinics throughout the South were distributing contraceptives to
Blacks and <Margaret's dream of discouraging "the defective and
diseased elements of humanity' from their 'reckless and irresponsible
swarming and spawning" was at last being fulfilled.>[4]*

In a 1926 speech at Vassar, Sanger said the nation needed to follow
the "drastic immigration laws" of 1924 with methods "to cut down on
the rapid multiplication of the unfit and undesirable at home."[5]

In a March, 1939 letter, Margaret Sanger explained to Frank Boudreau,
director of the Milbank Memorial Fund: ". . . That is not asking or
suggesting a cradle competition between the intelligent and the
ignorant, but a drastic curtailment of the birth rate at the source
of the unfit, the diseased and the incompetent . . . . The birth
control clinics all over the country are doing their utmost to reach
the lower strata [the minorities] of our population . . ."[6]

To stop this "multiplication," Sanger could be harsh. Her book, <The
Pivot of Civilization>, has a chapter called "The Cruelty of
Charity." In it she blasts as "insidiously injurious" programs to
provide "medical and nursing facilities to slum mothers." In other
words, Sanger wanted ethnic cleansing. Instead of helping the poor,
she considered them (particularly Blacks, Hispanics, and Jewish
immigrants) slum dwellers who would soon overrun the boundaries of
their slums and contaminate the better elements of society with their
inferior genes.

Throughout the 200+ pages of <The Pivot of Civilization> Sanger
called for the elimination of human weeds: "for the cessation of
charity, for the segregation of morons, misfits, and maladjusted,"
and for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races."[7] In this
same book she argued that organized attempts to help the poor were
the "surest sign that our civilization has bred, is breeding, and is
perpetuating . . . defectives, delinquents, and dependents."[8]

"Margaret Sanger is responsible, more than anyone else, for keeping
alive international racism. She played the attractive hostess for
racist thinkers all over the world. Organizing the First World
Population Conference in Geneva in 1926, she invited Clarence C.
Little, Edward A. East, Henry Pratt Fairchild, and Raymond
Pearl--all infamous racists."[9]

"In 1932, it [the <Birth Control Review>] outlined *Margaret's 'Plan
for Peace,' calling for coercive sterilization, mandatory
segregation, and rehabilitative concentration camps for all 'disgenic
stocks.'*[10]* In 1933, the <Birth Control Review> published 'Eugenic
Sterilization: An Urgent Need' by Ernst Rudin, who was Hitler's
director of genetic sterilization and a founder of the Nazi Society
for Racial Hygiene.[11] And later that same year, it published an
article by Leon Whitney entitled, 'Selective Sterilization,' which
adamantly praised and defended the Third Reich's racial
programs."[12]

Margaret Sanger and former Planned Parenthood President Alan
Guttmacher were both listed in 1956 as members of the American
Eugenics Society, Inc.

Today, Planned Parenthood vigorously supports Margaret Sanger's philosophies:

In 1992, Planned Parenthood's immediate past president, Faye
Wattleton, won Planned Parenthood's coveted Margaret Sanger Award.
The following is quoted from Planned Parenthood Federation of
America's 1992 Annual Report, page 13: "THE PPFA MARGARET SANGER
AWARD, *<Planned Parenthood's highest honor*>,* was presented in 1992
to former PPFA President Faye Wattleton. Planned Parenthood's
national leader from 1978 until March 1992, Ms. Wattleton exemplified
the courage *<and ideals>* of Margaret Sanger,*PPFA's founder."

Planned Parenthood also has a Margaret Sanger Clinic.


The Racism of Planned Parenthood today:

"A racial analysis of abortion statistics is quite revealing.
According to a Health and Human Services Administration report, as
many as forty-three percent of all abortions are performed on Blacks
and another ten percent on Hispanics.[13] This, despite the fact that
Blacks only make up eleven percent of the total U.S. population and
Hispanics only about eight percent.[14] A National Academy of
Sciences investigation released more conservative--but no less
telling-figures: thirty-two percent of all abortions are performed on
minority mothers."[15]

"During the 1980s when Planned Parenthood shifted its focus from
community-based clinics, it again targeted inner-city minority
neighborhoods.[16] Of the more than one hundred school-based clinics
that have opened nationwide in the last decade, <none> have been at
substantially all-White schools.[17] <None> have been at suburban
middle-class schools. <*All have been at Black, minority, or ethnic
schools.>*"[17]*

Planned Parenthood itself reports[18] that of the 132,314 abortions
it did in 1991, 23.2% were on African Americans, 12.5% were on
Hispanics, and 7% were on other minorities. Thus, the total
abortions on minorities is 42.7%. But minorities comprise only 19.7%
of the U.S. population.[19] Therefore, relative to population
*Planned Parenthood preferred to abort minorities three times[20] as
much as whites.*

"'There is no way you can escape the implications,' argues Black
financial analyst William L. Davis. 'When an organization has a
history of racism, when its literature is openly racist, when its
goals are self-consciously racial, and when its programs invariably
revolve around race, it doesn't take an expert to realize that the
organization is indeed <racist>. *<Really now, how can anyone
believe anything about Planned Parenthood except that it is a hive of
elitist bigotry, prejudice, and bias?*>* Just because the
organization has a smattering of minority staffers in key positions
does nothing to dispel the plain facts.'"[21]

Believe it or not

Abortion is evil in all cases

 

[jasoncran]

you didnt know this?

i have repeatedly said that about abortion.

the "cleansing"of the undesirables was sangers goal.

and sadly her unwitting followers who push abortion seem to be following that lock stop.

look for the stats yourself and see which races have the abortions

MINORTIES!

...I think she is referring to birth control to prevent the need for abortion.

hardly, she was eugenicist

and this

"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

 

[Tabasco Breath]

and this

"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

That is not what she is reffering to at all. She has a bigger overiding point. Which one would garner if quotes are read in context instead of taking quotes and infering context. This was stated earlier:

"In the United States, some 300,000 children under one year of age die each twelve months. Approximately ninety per cent of these deaths are directly or indirectly due to malnutrition, to other diseased conditions resulting from poverty, or to excessive childbearing by the mother.â€

Then she gave in example this from mortality data of turn of the century coal miner families:

"The first five children of these large miner families had about a 75% survival rate. The sixth-, seventh- and eighth-born approach a 70% survival rate. The eighth and ninth, about a 65% chance. The tenth, 60%; the eleventh, 50%; and the twelfth, 40%."

Then the implication you quoted:

"The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.â€

Her issue is the horrible deaths kids went through given malnutrition and disease given that current era. You can disagree with her flipped solution, I do, but her issue is not eugenics here; it's taking exception to the slow painful deaths experienced in large early 20-30 famlies at times experienced. There is far more to the quote and she is by no means extolling eugenics.

Here, what she wrote in its entirety

5. The Wickedness of Creating Large Families. Sanger, Margaret. 1920. Woman and the New Race

 

[mpok1519]

While unfortunately true, abortion is a necessary evil in our society. Without legalized abortion, we would have set back the womens' rights movement by insisting that a woman's body is not her own, but actually property of the US Govt. The Govt does not have a right to tell a women she cannot abort a pregnancy because it is apart of her body; there is no evidence to suggest that a zygote or fetus is its own autonomous and self-sustaning organism, thus affirming the notion that the pregnancy is still apart of the woman's body, and thus it is her choice to whether or not carry the pregnancy. If a woman is raped by her uncle, the govt cannot force her to carry that pregnancy, because this would be a serious human rights violation.

To those who insist planned parenthood is a systematic organization of eugenic ethnic cleansing, you're all insane. Planned Parenthood does not force women to have abortions; if a woman wants an abortion it is her choice, and her choice alone. No one else makes it for her. Planned Parenthood didn't conspire one day to eliminate ethnic people by forcing them to have abortions.

To the republicans; I would hope that your representatives you voted for would be spending their tax dollars, energy, focus and time on reaching goals that are ATTAINABLE, not crusading this anachronistic charade of morality to show their constituents that they are of 'strong moral fiber'. I would hope they spend time doing something that is actually possible, since you're never going to get Roe v Wade repealed, you might as well stop complaining about it.

really.so we can kill the 'excess" humans at will so that we first worlders wont go wtihout


my grandfather talked about that time. often children dont died ere two.

so her kind of solution to the problem of starving ethopians is to kill them.

take as you think. only a deviant mind could think of that.

its funny a couple years ago a christian friend debated this in college and one was pro- sanger and the other con-sanger

the pro-sanger no longer sees how sanger was a hero.

 

[GojuBrian]

What do I think? Well, I hope the murderers that work at planned baby killing spontaneously burst into a slow, unquenchable fire.

 

[reba]

There is no way to make nice the killing of millions of people. These paid killers should wear brown shirts with SS on the sleve.

Those who use starving as a justifacition for killing shoud just off themself not some one else.


THe women with her so called rights is not killing herself but some one else. Birth control is to easy to get to resort to the killing.

Shoot the uncle kill him not the child.

Again, you can take exception to the comment as I do but I take exception to it because frankly I think she was kind of being flilipped to arouse the issue of overpopulation and the ramifications of malnutrition and death.

She is certianly not advocating eugenics, specially racial eugenics, while I am advocating the need to let the context of what people say speak for itself and not others pulling words out of context just to create their own context.

 

[Servant John]

Others have already commented on the origins of PP so I will not elaborate other than to say Margaret Sanger was a disgusting individual in her raciest beliefs and enabling infanticide to exist on a large scale in this country.

Any organization that advocates killing babies as an option, is of the Devil and should not be supported.

why is death the only way?

how about endorsing adoption, which her wonderful organisation doesnt support(or does very little)

so death is better then suffering

that same logic is being used for the pro euthenasia.

defend your lady away,i'm all ears after all take a gander in those babies who seemed to quite peaceful and not in pain when they died.

saline doesnt burn when it kills them

the brains being sucked out is most painless
the dismantling limb by limb is most painless way

when you endorse doing this type of stuff to your fido as she has pups then talk

i doubt any peta lover animal lover would let that happen.

My posts are not really to defend her persay.

If one has issues with her views then it would be best to at least understand her views rather then going to sources who go out their way to contextually misuse them for their own purposes.

That's why I gave you the link of her own words....in context.


Be well

i am in context. that is what she meant

to kill the child is better then letting it suffer?
and abortion isnt painful?

i dont think those pics of aborted babies show that they died in peace but rather a tortuous way.
