Oh yea i heard about PP forget what it was, legit just escaped me
Need a TLDR?
sure
TRAAAAAAAPS
Basically, the founder, woman by the name of Margaret Sanger, supported the legalization of abortion as a way to get rid of black people and those with genetic defects. Supported "parent licenses" too. Now look at where abortion clinics tend to be located
Keep in mind that this was just after the turn of the century, so her opinions weren't looked down upon quite as much as they would be today
uh, random space stuff?
You'll excuse if I don't take fundamentalistdeceit to be an impartial source.
Regarding the support of eugenics, even the wiki admits an overlap, quoting from
While I personally believe in the sterilization of the feeble-minded, the insane and syphilitic, I have not been able to discover that these measures are more than superficial deterrents when applied to the constantly growing stream of the unfit.
I linked the source, see context for yourself. I find it to be an unacceptable breach of bodily integrity, no matter the benefits.
Looking for the source on the parent license thing. I've seen it before, can't find it - all the results are recent articles in support of it. Hang on.
I'll do the rest first. I'll concede that the famous quote is misused, being in reference to people mistaking her intentions, but the fact remains that her work re: contraception was focused on minority communities as they fit her criteria of being "unfit", even if this was largely due to economic conditions.
Pause the conversation, everyone, this is more important
