Margaret Sanger "Negroes are human weeds that must be eliminated"
Hillary "I admire Margaret Sanger and the work she has done"
Do you get it, African americans? Do you understand?
I suspect that liberals, like Hillary, are well aware of what Margaret Sanger stood for. She didn't want poor people or the "unfit" to breed. She stated that they would be a drain on society and would only breed more unfit people
Sanger was crystal clear in her many, many writings and there is no way anyone can possibly claim it's spinning or taking things out of context to say that she wanted a society made up of the right kind of people. She always had the same message and there is no question what she was talking about. Mentally or physically disabled and minorities were something to eradicate. Sanger specifically focused on blacks, assuming that they were always going to be inferior.
She would have euthanized all people she deemed unfit if she could have. And if any unfit individual was pregnant, she wanted them to abort the baby because she thought unfit people would breed unfit children.
The left understands this perfectly, at least the leaders do. It's not about women's rights. Sanger dreamed about some Hitleresque "perfect" world where we didn't have substandard people. When you look at the women getting abortions, it's mostly blacks. Over a million black babies are aborted each year. There is a reason why PP clinics can be found in so many predominantly black neighborhoods. It's not a coincidence. This was Sanger's goal and there is no getting around it if you read her garbage.
Without debating abortion, can we at least be honest about who Margaret Sanger was and what her true mission was all about. I bring this up because I believe that the goal hasn't changed much. I wonder how many women are convinced to have an abortion when they go to PP. Funny that she warned that too much welfare would create more poor people. That is one point where today's liberals differ from her. The left loves having more poor people because their idea of a "perfect" world is an all-powerful nanny government and they need poverty, racism and division to make that happen.
"Planned Parenthood holds Sanger out as a compassionate woman concerned about the welfare of the vulnerable and downtrodden. Yet she writes about charity:
"The most serious charge that can be brought against modern benevolence is that it encourages the perpetuation of defectives, delinquents, and dependents. These are the most dangerous elements in the world community, the most devastating curse on human progress and expression. Philanthropy is a gesture characteristic of modern business lavishing upon the unfit the profits extorted from the community at large. Looked at impartially, this compensatory generosity is in its final effect probably more dangerous, more dysgenic, more blighting than the initial practice of profiteering."
The Pivot of Civilization – Margaret Sanger, p. 101
Planned Parenthood claims that Sanger was a human rights’ activist. Normally, when one thinks of human rights, one thinks of standing up for and defending the vulnerable members of society that are downtrodden and abused. Yet she writes in
Woman and the New Race on p. 89:
"No matter how much they desire children, no man and woman have a right to bring into the world those who are to suffer from mental or physical affliction. It condemns the child to a life of misery and places upon the community the burden of caring for it, probably for its defective descendants for many generations."
Planned Parenthood claims that Sanger was concerned with the issues of health and fitness, but did not perpetuate the broader eugenics movement of the early 20th century. Yet it’s hard to justify that conclusion when she writes on
p. 25 in The Pivot of Civilization:
"The lack of balance between the birth rate of the ‘unfit’ and the ‘fit,’ admittedly the greatest present menace to civilization, can never be rectified by the inauguration of a cradle competition between these two classes. The example of the inferior classes, the fertility of the feeble-minded, the mentally defective, the poverty-stricken, should not be held up for emulation to the mentally and physically fit, and therefore less fertile, parents of the educated and well-to-do classes. On the contrary, the most urgent problem today is how to limit and discourage the over-fertility of the mentally and physically defective. Possibly drastic and Spartan methods may be forced upon American society if it continues complacently to encourage the chance and chaotic breeding that has resulted from our stupid, cruel sentimentalism."
And again, on p. 25 in the inspiringly titled
Motherhood in Bondage
"But poverty multiplied by ignorance, hunger, disease, congenital defect, cannot be a proper breeding-ground for the future generations of America."
