You`re giving Clorox Claudette credit for being a woman?
Her program was to help poor people, not be so poor, and reliant on government.
My white as snow family were likely one of those families she educated on birth control.
I've been researching my ancestry for over two years now...
And all of my great grandma's had 8 or 9 or 10 kids, and even 14 kids for one grandpa who had 8 kids with my grandma who died in giving child birth, and married another younger woman and had another 6 kids with her....
Many during that time could not feed the mouths of their own children....they were rock bottom poor....
My family ancestors mostly used all child hands on deck, to run the family farms...so they were more fortunate.
It was common in the south to have 10 kids...there wasn't much to entertain themselves, I guess???
This was impoverishment for most families, with no means for birth control than an education on how babies happen.... She empowered women, with knowledge.... the rhythmic method of birth control... Then the birth rates came down, to maybe 5 kids a family, instead of 10.
You can see this happening as you research your genealogy....

Abortion. Margaret Sanger opposed abortion and sharply distinguished it from birth control. She believed that the latter is a fundamental right of women and the former is a shameful crime. In 1916, when she opened her first birth control clinic, she was employing harsh rhetoric against abortion.

Some of this was already talked about in this thread, other quotes are just odd to hear in 2021 however not racist at all. Other quotes are either incomplete or out of context.21 Quotes by Margaret Sanger that Will Probably Make You Sick

But in the end I guess you guys just think birth control is racist. Why?
In my opinion, being born into this vale of tears is a tragedy.
I envy those who were never born.

Ironically, the vale of tears that you speak of is being created in part by the very people who snuff out an unborn life.

The worst Supreme Court decision in the 20th century Buck v Bell 1927 (majority opinion by Oliver Wendel Holmes) authorized involuntary sterilization. It was part of the trend by political progressives toward a brave new world of eugenics.

That's rather inconvenient. Since you guys insist that all slave owners were liberals simply because they were Democrats then I guess you're just going to have to accept Oliver Wendel Holmes conservative credentials...him being a Republican and all.
Sorry, can't have it both ways, ya' nutty sterilization Nazi or whatever.

I have no idea... Nobody looked at fetuses as human before Roe. People weren't convicted of murder for having abortions or performing them.
Sanger's main objection to abortion was that it was still a pretty dangerous proposition in 1920. We didn't have antibiotics and methods were crude.
Well, mostly because abortion isn't an 'entity'. It's a procedure.
Now, yes, there is some systematic racism here... just not what you think it is. Women of color are more likely to be poor, more likely to not have easy access to health care, and less likely to be able to afford an unwanted pregnancy, so more likely to have need to terminate a pregnancy than a white woman
