Eugenics and Planned Parenthood – Margaret Sanger - Forgotten History

This isn't forgotten history, this is hidden history

I won a $50 bet about Sanger. No one in the lunchroom believed she advocated for eugenics. They didn't know what "eugenics" even meant. They didn't believe that she felt certain races were inferior and should not be reproducing because of weak genes that affected the overall health and welfare of a country. A coworker got his cellphone out, and he read a brief bio of Sanger. The people in the lunchroom were shocked beyond belief to hear what Sanger really believed about blacks and reproduction. Let's say she wasn't the heroine they thought her to be, and I happily collected my $50 and went back to my desk.

"First we overlook evil, Then we permit evil. Then we legalize evil. Then we promote evil. Then we celebrate evil. Then we persecute those who still call it evil." Fr. Dwight Longenecker “In the Last Days, Good will be called Evil and Evil will be called Good.” Are We There YET ?

My daughter in 2016 did a report on planned parenthood/Margaret Sanger/ eugenics. I had no idea she was doing a report on this subject what so ever until she came home with her report & 3 sided poster board on the subject. She did a VERY extensive & well put together report with pictures, quotes from Sanger. & pictures of the development stages during gestation period/pregnancy of the Fetas/Baby. She even left them with a question to ponder. " Fetus OR Baby from time of consiption/ fertilization of egg" The teacher & school seemed to have a problem with the subject she chose, even though the kids were allowed to choose ANY subject ( history or present) they wanted to do. Her report hit history & present so i was proud & amazed at her excellent work. However the teacher gave her a D for her grade. She asked why but got no reason/answer, just told that what grade your report deserves. After I read & saw the complete report ( which was some knowledge that I didn't even know) I checked all her references and the history myself and found it to All be true. I them talked to the teacher (over the phone, because she said she just couldn't make any time for a conference or a quick meeting). On that call she couldn't give me ant reason. She tried though, saying most of information was not true, was made up by my child and elaborate on wildly and decietfully. I told her I investigated her sources and all info on the subject and everything the reported was absolutely historical & present day Facts. The kicker of this ordeal is it was 60% of her grade that semester of the 12th grade, and this teacher would NOT give her a higher grade ( the grade she deserved) and ONLY one of her other teachers said she deserved an A or a B+ at the least. The principal, counselor and all other teachers stood by the teacher who gave her a D grade!!! Crazy thing is, is the one teacher who didn't agree with the grade D was a teacher that was a No shenanigans , hard line teacher. Not easy on most every student. I'm still proud of my daughter to this day, for standing up for what was/is truth and standing up for herself against a large mass of teachers, students, principles, & counselors. She was not a nerd, unpopular, or a wallflower , yet she did not give in to the mob.😊

Sadly the HUGE piece that was missed was what she did to Puerto Rican woman. She undertook the largest mass sterilization of any ethnic group without their consent or knowledge AND we have Puerto Rican women to thank for birth control. They tested birth control on women, the amounts so high many, many women died, without their knowledge, they weren’t vitamin pills which they thought they were taking. All births during her reign of terror in Puerto Rico had women delivering not only their babies but also the taking of their uteruses so they could not have more children. Cancer in the Puerto Rican people was relatively low until Sanger but after it jumped 10x the national average. Why does no one talk about this travesty?

I just wrote a paper on this for my college American history final. The teacher was not happy

Today, a little girl at the playground bonked her head on a table and was crying. Her mother was watching a baseball game nearby but didn't see. My little boy saw her and went to her, made her smile, and very gently patted her face. It was so sweet, and I teared up. He has Down's Syndrome, and Sanger wanted kids like him to never be born.

Quote from Hillary Clinton concerning Sanger: “Now, I have to tell you that it was a great privilege when I was told that I would receive this award. I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision … And when I think about what she did all those years ago in Brooklyn, taking on archetypes, taking on attitudes and accusations flowing from all directions, I am really in awe of her.”

Sanger was also an advisor to President Woodrow Wilson, who was one of our worst presidents.

It's amazing how many people in "high" positions are so evil and demented.

I’m a nurse and I’ve been angry about planned parenthood for many years. It would be one thing if they actually promoted choice and not just abortion and acknowledged and tried to repair the damage Sanger did in her lifetime. Not only have they not done any of this, but so many of their facilities and employees actively assist criminals to hide their crimes against girls and women, and the fact they attempted to conceal that in some areas over half of the women who got terminations reported being coerced by a romantic partner or family members. They’ve also been caught selling fetal remains. And let’s not forget when they fired one of their presidents/directors because she wanted to focus on increasing education and use of contraceptives and prevent unwanted pregnancies in the first place. Basically, planned parenthood is one of the very few things in this world I truly hate

For those who don't want to believe this. . . Here is a simple test. Sanger wrote a lot of letters and books. See if you can find any for sale. PP has made sure you don't.

I wrote a report on her and I was told my facts were wrong and my sources were biased , If I’m wrong in the same way an actual Historian is wrong … I’ll take that with a smile ….. Thank you for sharing.

My niece, a Democrat and lawyer who was ~ 28 at the time, scoffed at me when I brought up Margaret Sanger, Eugenics and Planned Parenthood. Telling me it was all lies. At the time, in 2017, Sanger's Wikipedia was as most would expect, void of any mention of Eugenics and Planned Parenthood. Since that time, it's been updated to more accurately reflect her racist ambitions.

She'd be proud of how folks have fallen into line with her original goal.

The 1934 film Tomorrows Children is another gem that flies under the radar. Not all maniacs dress in military uniforms and goose step down the street.

A classmate who is an obgyn-abortionist told me "Abortions for low income mothers help to lower crime rates". This is stereotyping. This is deeming children guilty until proven innocent. This is making obgyn an arm of law enforcement. This is eugenics from the mouth of a practitioner!

It's about time someone told the truth about Sanger and PP. Thank you

I recall an investigative journalist that contacted a planned parenthood clinic in almost every state, she was requesting prenatal vitamins and examinations to make sure her baby was healthy, she was told by nearly every location "we don't provide those services", as in they only preform abortions.

Just imagine the millions of lives that would have been saved if Margaret's mother had the same beliefs and hatred towards children that She did.
