Havelock Ellis quote
Line 199: Line 199:  
: Sanger was part of her time when most educated people believed in racist theories. In fact, Sanger not only hated African-Americans, she worried about the influx of immigration from Eastern/Southern Europe (most of them were practicing Roman Catholics) had higher birth rates, that they "overwhelm" the American Anglo-Protestant majority population, and she likened the Chinese to a "plague", a non-Caucasian country had more people than America. Sanger held anti-Semitic views about Jewish people aren't really "white"/European and to have influenced the Nazis' eugenics program. In the USA, the main fear of genetic pollution of the so-called "Nordic" white race in the turn of the 20th century was from Black Americans, Mexicans in both Mexico or the USA a "mongrelized" nation and Native Americans  being portrayed a "dying" race in racial scientific journals. + [[User:Getitstraight|Getitstraight]] 13:27, 17 December 2009 (EST)

::msot people did not believe that stuff and Sanger did not either. She worked well with blacks and took the initiative to work with them at a time no racist would ever do that. Sanger promoted birth control and strongly opposed abortion. [[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 14:40, 17 December 2009 (EST)

I separated it from the other quotes to distinguish it.  It's not actually her words, but she quotes it very approvingly, so it still deserves to be added.  The topic of page 94 is the eugenic value of health and education and of course the mixture of legislative action, and it was necessary in the context for her to state which of the two took primacy.  Ellis' words was how she accomplished that goal on that page.
