Took them long enough - Planned Parenthood

They are finally memory-holing that vile white-supremicist eugenicist Margaret Sanger from their roster.
Margaret Sanger? Planned Parenthood's founder. From Breitbart:

Planned Parenthood to Remove Eugenicist Margaret Sanger’s Name from Flagship Abortion Clinic
Planned Parenthood of Greater New York (PPGNY) announced Tuesday it plans to remove the name of the organization’s founder, Margaret Sanger, from its flagship abortion facility in New York City because of her “harmful connections to the eugenics movement.”

The announcement also indicated the organization would be working with city officials to “rename an honorary street sign that marks the ‘Margaret Sanger Square’ at the intersection of Bleecker and Mott Streets in Manhattan.”

“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,” said Karen Seltzer, PPGNY board chair, in a statement.

“Margaret Sanger’s concerns and advocacy for reproductive health have been clearly documented, but so too has her racist legacy,” she added. “There is overwhelming evidence for Sanger’s deep belief in eugenic ideology, which runs completely counter to our values at PPGNY.”

Her quotes are well documented. Here are a couple of them:

    • The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.
    • We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population.
    • Today eugenics is suggested by the most diverse minds as the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems.
    • Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race.
    • No woman shall have the legal right to bear a child, and no man shall have the right to become a father, without a permit for parenthood.
    • We are paying for, and even submitting to, the dictates of an ever-increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.

Although that last one certainly sums up some of the problems we are having in D.C. right now. A great number of people currently in office would be great cantidates for retroactive birth control. Ditto the kiddies acting out in Seattle, Minneapolis, Portland, NYC, etc...
