PLANNED PARENTHOOD IS ROOTED IN RACISM AND EUGENICS
"The most merciful thing a large family can do to one of its infant members is to kill it." (Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, in 'Women and the New Race.' 1920). Welcome, dear Brother Knights, to the world of Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood`s patron saint!
Planned Parenthood, as describe in a former essay, is an international, national and local organization promoting population control through contraception and abortion. In the past twenty five years, the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) has become one of the most powerful organizations on earth - a globe-girdling octopus with headquarters in London, England and national affiliates in over 100 countries. In Canada, the Planned Parenthood Federation of Canada is the national organization. The exact names of the affiliates vary but they all include "Planned Parenthood" in their title (e.g. Planned Parenthood Manitoba).
Clinics affiliated with Planned Parenthood are arguably responsible for killing more unborn babies than any other organization in the world. PP clinics abort annually about 150,000 babies in the United States. Those which do not perform abortions refer for approximately 90,000 more.
Margaret Sanger, born in 1879, was one of eleven children raised by an oppressive, atheist father. Her books and her magazine, 'The Birth Control Review,' reveal her a racist, radical feminist, anti-Christian, a leader of the sexual revolution, and a fierce opponent of the institution of marriage.
IPPF and its affiliates throughout the world still follow religiously in the footsteps of their ideological hero, a eugenicist who was sympathetic to Adolf Hitler`s campaign of eliminating lives "not worthy to be lived." Unlike Hitler, however, Sanger pursued a more subtle, but no less sinister path toward racial purification. It was her firm conviction that inferior people could be easily convinced to accept birth control and abortion under the guise of personal freedom.
In her 1922 book 'Pivot of Civilization,' Sanger unabashedly called for the destruction of "weeds...overruning the human garden"; for the segregation of "moron, misfits, and the malajusted"; and for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races." She also made concrete policy proposals, such as the creation of "moron communities," the forced production of children by the "fit", and the compulsory sterilization and even elimination of the "unfit". Her depopulation targets included Jews, Hispanics, blacks, and others who were deemed "unfit" by reason of poverty, insanity, or even epilepsy. She singled out the Chinese, condemning their "incessant fertility... spreading like a plague."
She despised charity work among the poor because it helped minority classes survive when she felt they should perish. She even complained about the efforts of foreign missionaries to save lives by preventing infanticide. Her bitter hatred of Christianity was well know and her opposition to charity and missionary efforts merely reflected that fact.
In her 1939 proposal called "Birth Control and the Negro", Sanger asserted that "the poorer areas, particularly in the South...are producing alarmingly more than their share of future generations.
Here are her own words: "We do not want word to go out that we want to eliminate the Negro population... and the (black) minister is the man who can straighten out that idea." One could easily say the Rev. Jesse Jackson has taken upon himself to pompously play this role of lackey for his pro-abortion white friends in Planned Parenthood.
In her campaign to eliminate "human weeds," Sanger was indeed especially concerned about birth control among blacks. Planned Parenthood has clearly adopted Sanger`s racist and eugenicist plans to promote the killing of what she considered unfit babies. As a result of Planned Parenthood racists principles, ponder the existing grim U.S. statistics recorded by the Atlanta Centre for Disease Control: a) Black babies now represent 400,000 of the 1,5 million yearly abortions; b) Two black babies are aborted for every three born; and c) A disproportionately high percentage of Planned Parenthood clinics are in African-American and Hispanic neighbourhoods. While blacks make up 12% of the American population, the revelation of the Centre for Disease Control survey that 32% of all abortions are performed on black and other minority women, demonstrates just how discriminatory the practice of abortion has become.
Planned Parenthood leaders, blacks as well as white, unashamedly honour their founder, despite her promotion of racial elitism. Katharine Hepburn states: "Planned Parenthood is not losing sight of Margaret Sanger... an American pioneer in the truest and noblest self-sacrificing sense... Sanger's memory is honored throughout the world by men and women who understand her monumental achievements for humanity." All this adulation reserved for a racial elitist whose contempt for humanity knew no bounds, a woman who would dare write: "All our problems are the result of overbreeding among the working class."
The New Testament tells us that if the foundation is rotten, the structure will be unsound. Planned Parenthood, founded by its beloved "saint" Margaret Sanger who ended her life as a drug addict and alcoholic, is an ideal case in point.
