Planned Parenthood is an organization that performs abortions, provides maternal and reproductive health-care to women and couples.

Margaret Sanger, a proponent of [[eugenics], was the founder of Planned Parenthood. [1] Planned Parenthood annually gives awards to those who support their agenda and the top award which they give is called The Margaret Sanger Award. [2] Alan Guttmacher, who was a President of Planned Parenthood from 1962 to 1974 and was a former Vice-President of the American Eugenics Society[3][4] stated: "We are merely walking down the path that Ms. Sanger has carved out for us." [5] Similarly, Faye Wattleton, who was the president of Planned Parenthood until 1992, stated that she was "proud" to be "walking in the footsteps" of Margaret Sanger.[6]


Statements by founder Margaret Sanger

"The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." [7]

"the masses of Negroes... particularly in the South, still breed carelessly and disastrously, with the result that the increase among Negroes, even more than among whites, is from that portion of the population least intelligent and fit..."[8]

"We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." [9]

"Before eugenists and others who are laboring for racial betterment can succeed, they must first clear the way for Birth Control. Like the advocates of Birth Control, the eugenists, for instance, are seeking to assist the race toward the elimination of the unfit. Both are seeking a single end but they lay emphasis upon different methods. …" [10]

In Margaret Sanger's book The Pivot of Civilization she called for the elimination of "human weeds," for the segregation of "morons, misfits, and maladjusted," and for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races." [11] Sanger also stated in this book that organized attempts to assist the poor were the "surest sign that our civilization has bred, is breeding, and is perpetuating. . . defectives, delinquents, and dependents." [12]

Planned Parenthood and Charges of Targeting Minority Communities

According to writer George Grant author of Killing Angel:

"During the 1980s when Planned Parenthood shifted its focus from community-based clinics to school-based clinics, it again targeted inner-city minority neighborhoods...Of the more than 100 school-based clinics that have opened nationwide in the last decade [1980s], none has been at substantially all-white schools....None has been at suburban middle-class schools. All have been at black, minority or ethnic schools.” [13]

Planned Parenthood itself reported that its abortions on minorities in 1991 was 42.7% of its total abortions. [14]. However, during that time period, minorities comprised only 19.7% of the U.S. population.[15]

According to Cybercast News Service: "An analysis by the Cybercast News Service compared the location of Planned Parenthood abortion clinics with population data from the U.S. Census in 2000. The results appear to bolster the charge that the organization targets black communities."[16]

Minority Employees Charge Planned Parenthood with Racism

Recently, several minority employees of Planned Parenthood have filed multiple complaints of racism against the organization and they stated they were the target of constant slurs in a hostile, anti-male environment controlled by white women.[17] An employee who is charging Planned Parenthood with discrimination said that a complaint was forwarded to Planned Parenthood human resources department and nothing was ever done about it. [18] Attorney Richard D. Ackerman, the lead attorney for two claimants, stated "This is a really sad state of affairs. It is unfortunate to find out that [Planned Parenthood, Los Angelos] PPLA, as a self-proclaimed promoter of 'tolerance and diversity,' is engaging in what appears to be the most primitive form of hate against its own employees." [19]
