Speaker to Animals wrote:Planned Parenthood was originally created to exterminate the black race from America. It's original name, as founded by Sanger, was the Negro Project. Margaret Sanger was a eugenicist who believed that blacks were an inferior race who polluted the American gene pool.
Whether or not the people running that business still believe that, or if they are killing millions of babies for the money only, they (along with the rest of the abortion industry) continue to kill off somewhere around half of all black babies conceived. Thus the black population has not really grown much at all outside of immigration. Still, if their motives no longer boil down to racist eugenics, I find it strange that they predominantly target minority communities with their clinics. Presumably white women who have no problem killing their own babies are able to pay more for abortions, making it more profitable to serve middle class communities.
Look at the percentages of the population. Blacks are stuck at around 12%, and that includes all the immigration from Africa, Caribbean, and Latin America.
They only now are starting to reach the same percentage of the population they constituted before the Civil War.
Shit to think about..
I can see were you are coming from, and I know it's honestly believed, but I'm going to strongly disagree here.
Sanger did, like the majority of Americans, and Europeans, have racist beliefs, and she did support some form of eugenics, like far too much of elite establishment. But show me just where she advocated either by deceptive practices, or by force, eugenics on "inferior races." Still she did support the concept.
Just about all her efforts were on spreading information about, the use of, and the availablity of contraception. It was illegal just to mail materials about, let alone the actual devices for, contraception. She did it because many women, especially the poor, were dying from having too many babies, not to mention having the money to care for a large brood.
Planned Parenthood was founded for that purpose. Doing abortion are small part of its services. As for why it mainly serve poor people ls because that is where the need is. Its like asking why is the methadone clinic is on skidrow and serves only poor people. If you are poor, it's a public clinic for you, not a nice private doctor's practice.
As too the population percentage, the international slave trade was only effectively quashed a few decades before the Civil War, stopping black "immigration" and that along with the Potato Famine, and the Year of Revolutions in 1848 started a new wave of white immigration and which really didn't end until the early 20th ( I don't remember the year) due to some laws passed by Congress restricting immigration.
I'm sorry. I have books on this shit, including(especially?) eugenics. This is like reading about how AIDS was created to kill blacks. There is plenty of evil done by the people, and the governments both state and federal, ethnic cleansing of blacks and natives, slavery, eugenics and this idea of secretly killing an entire group is just nuts. It drives me nuts.
Although that's not to say that some back then did not want to.
