Planned Parenthood in N.Y. Disavows Margaret Sanger Over Eugenics

Planned Parenthood of Greater New York will remove the name of Margaret Sanger, a founder of the national organization, from its Manhattan health clinic because of her “harmful connections to the eugenics movement,” the group said on Tuesday.

Ms. Sanger, a public health nurse who opened the first birth control clinic in the United States in Brooklyn in 1916, has long been lauded as a feminist icon and reproductive-rights pioneer.

But her legacy also includes supporting eugenics, a discredited belief in improving the human race through selective breeding, often targeted at poor people, those with disabilities, immigrants and people of color.

“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, the chair of the New York affiliate’s board, said in a statement.

Reaction among the primitives varies, but once they learn that Margaret Sanger opposed abortion, it's a case of "oh well, it's no big deal."

Pro-Life people have been calling out Sanger's racism for decades. Pro-Abortion people denied it until this cancelling.

Since they spent so much time targeting and tarnishing the names of our Founding Fathers, I was wondering when they would finally turn on this deeply racist witch.

Indeed. When Sanger was alive and running PP, she arranged that deliberately as a way of bringing about her eugenicist goals by keeping non- white populations from growing.
