Planned Parenthood to remove Margaret Sanger’s name from N.Y. clinic over views on eugenics

Planned Parenthood of Greater New York will remove the name of the national organization’s founder, Margaret Sanger, from a Manhattan clinic in an attempt to reckon with her ties to the eugenics movement, the organization announced Tuesday.

An early feminist activist, Sanger is widely regarded as a pioneer in American reproductive rights. She opened the first birth control clinic in the United States more than a century ago, and helped create access to birth control for low-income, minority and immigrant women. But she was also a vocal supporter of the now-discredited eugenics movement, which aimed to improve the human race through planned breeding based on genetic traits.

“The removal of Margaret Sanger’s name from our building is both a necessary and overdue step to reckon with our legacy and acknowledge Planned Parenthood’s contributions to historical reproductive harm within communities of color,” Karen Seltzer, chair of the board at Planned Parenthood of Greater New York, said in a statement. “Margaret Sanger’s concerns and advocacy for reproductive health have been clearly documented, but so too has her racist legacy.”

Fun fact. Planned parenthood is now handing out hormones and arranging surgeries for kids who come in without and parent and without any doctor’s note or referral if they say they think they are transgendered. Yeah, they are just so great for public health.

Here’s a video that’s pretty scary

Absolutely awful.

Billy Goat Gates's father, William Gates, served as an early and prominent Board Member of Planned Parenthood.

Billy Goat was quoted saying the following about 10 years ago:

“First, we’ve got population. The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about nine billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent …”

(Scratching head wondering how "new vaccines" will curb population growth).

But never forget the acorn doesn't fall from the tree. Oh sure, Gates will tell us that "more children surviving" will "lessen the need to have children," but Bill and Melinda are of the same of the same ilk as Poppy Planned Parenthood and Sanger. Gates's public initiatives are geared around that view of the world and to that end. They decry the "useless eaters" as coined by Lord Bertrand Russell.
