Player #572015, they should tell the true story of her trying to exterminate blacks and the poor. Heifer.

Sanger was a member of the American Eugenics Society. She was a eugenicist who wanted to forcefully sterilize people, she wrote many articles and books on the subject. Hitler admired the work of Margaret Sanger, and modeled many of his Eugenics Laws after America’s.

she was a racist.

She still is alive and well in the Democrat party and Planned Parenthood. Get off of the Democrat Plantation fellow Americans of the black community.

Sanger was a racist. She opened the American Birth Control in so there wouldn't be as many black babies born.

Karl Bunk, she was evil

docdebbielove1, not so much mean, but this woman is NOT to be revered by ANY good person. She was Hitler's idol, for crying out loud!

Essie100, not all PP are in under served areas. There’s one very near me and also two hospitals nearby that have full women’s centers. They mostly see people who have no insurance.
Peg
IllustratedGrrl, it doesn't matter if she was racist or not what matters is that women for a while there were able to choose what happened with their bodies sometimes people make mistakes they shouldn't have to pay for the rest of their lives
Peg
Lionessa, that's true
Lionessa
Eugenics is essentially a breeding program for people where some ruling group decides who is and is not "fit" to contribute to the gene pool. Those deemed unworthy are sterilized. It is not the same as voluntary use of birth control.
Lionessa
Birth control is the only means women have to control their own destiny. Before, you had to either abstain from sex or join the Mommy Brigade. Two bad choices for many women.

Lash, there was one in new York and one at Smithsonian they were talking about taking them down in 2020 don't know if they did. there is at least one building named after her.
Jackie
me, type in her name in Google
Jackie
Jen, I've done the research already and she was evil she wanted to sterilize all black women I don't know how many she did. but I think that she was evil for doing that and lying to black women. this is the whole reason she started it.
Jackie
Player #4312832, maybe when the life of the mother is at stake. my husband told Dr to save my son first I'm glad my parents were there and that I was able to speak I could always have another baby. my son and I are both great
Jen
redshoes, Also, to be clear I'm not saying she's wasn't racist. If those were her underlying reasons then I'd agree that she was an evil person but what she did was not wrong. Women are human beings who deserve rights esp the right to save their own lives.

Atomic Haze 303, where can I learn more about this?
Victoria
Oh my God,,all comments are terrible about this woman, I wonder if she knew that she was hated, ,probably did, I would think,
Lash
Player #8754490, where are there any statues of Margaret Sanger? Just curious.

Sanger was a vicious racist who feverishly supported eugenics,and wrote on her book " minorities should be scattered across the country so as not to be permitted a powerful presence in any one area.(paraphrased)." She is the mother of genocide via infanticide and the heroic icon of a political party in the United States.
Maria
She founded Planned Parenthood(killing) which was used to erase Blacks because she wanted only white babies. And she also founded Girl Scout cookies.
Kristi

Essie100
I've learned a lot reading through this and appreciate everyone's perspectives! I am curious how many Planned Parenthood locations are in underserved communities, relative to other communities? On one hand, less resources require an easier avenue, but at the same time something about that seems so wrong?
EA
She was diabolical.

IllustratedGrrl, Why is presenting the truth a train wreck?
Player #34794235
Atomic Haze 303, I had never heard that part of her story even in college. Thanks to all who posted the rest of the story.
HarlemzFlyGirl
She was a monster. This is how she felt about Black people and those with special needs, that she called "febble mindiness."
"Sanger urged Dr. Gamble to enlist the help of spiritual leaders to justify their deadly work, writing, “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 that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”

The only way a women or man can be free is through Jesus Christ ! Victory in Christ!

rissis10, she was against all people's that were not of noble birth. they live in a world where your birth heritage still exist and position in society.
Our freedom is under control more than most people realize.
Tex Patriot
Eugenics means "of noble birth."
The aim is to diminish / eliminate the population for easy control of those not of noble birth.
Lords and serfs.
Mary J.
she placed first PP offices in black areas in cities to control the black population
