Nazism and Planned Parenthood
(Reprinted from the Francisan Friars of the Immaculate brochure)



Adolf Hitler - Dictator of Nazi Germany "The demand that defective people be
prevented from propagating equally defective offspring. . . represents the most humane
act of mankind." Mein Kampf, vol. 1, ch. 10


Margaret Sanger - Founder of Planned Parenthood ". . .we prefer the policy of
immediate sterilizarion, of making sure that parenthood is ' absolutely prohibed '
to the feeble-minded." The Pivot of Civilization, p102



Most people today think that Planned Parenthood and Nazi Germany have little in
common. Their histories show otherwise. Margaret Sanger, the founder of
Planned Parenthood, subscribe to a Hitlerian philosophy of Eugenics - the science
of improving "racial health" by socially engineering human reproduction. Both Hitler
and the founders of Planned Parenthood advocate birth control, sterilization, and
segregation in concentration camps for the "unfit."


The Birth Control Review

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE AMERICAN BIRTH CONTROL LEAGUE

MARGARET SANGER, Editor

DECEMBER, 1921


"Birth Control: to create a race of thoroughbreds"
Slogan of Margaret Sanger - Founder of Planned Parenthood



The banner-head above summarizes the philosophy of Margaret Sanger, the
founder of Planned Parenthood. Like Adolf Hitler, Margaret Sanger considered
herself to be part of a genetically superior elite who had to protect themselves
against "hereditary taints." She set out to start a "New Race" - "A Race
of Thoroughbreds." This elitist attitude is clearly at odds with the
leftist, social worker image that is commonly attributed to her by the mass
media.


In 1921, Sanger founded the American Birth Control League, which was renamed
"Planned Parenthood" in 1942. In 1952 she helped found the International Planned
Parenthood Federation (IPPF), serving as its first president until 1959. Even today,
Planned Parenthood proudly proclaims Margaret Sanger as its "visionary" founder.


Mararet Sanger's 1922 manifesto, The Pivot of Civilization, states the following:


"Birth Control which has been criticized as negative and destructive, is really the
greatest and most truly eugenic method, and its adoption as part of the program of
Eugenics would immediately give a concrete and realistic power to that science. . . as
the most constructive and necessary of the means to racial health."

1933: NAZI PARTY AND FOUNDERS OF PLANNED
PARENTHOOD JOIN HANDS



The founders of Planned Parenthood had more ties to Hitler than just a shared
vision. Their board of directors included avowed Nazi supporters like Dr. Lothrop
Stoddard (who authored The Rising Tide of Color Against White Supremacy and
another praising the Nazi sterilization law). They used their official publication to
spread Nazi propaganda. In April of 1933, Birth Control Review published an
article by Dr. Ernst Rubin, who was Hitler's director of genetic sterilization and
a founder of the Nazi Society for Racial Hygiene. In this article Dr. Rubin
wrote:


"The danger to the community of the unsegregated feeble-minded woman is more
evident. Most dangerous are the middle and high grades living at large who,
despite the fact that their defect is not easily recognizable, should nevertheless be
prevented from procreation. . . In my view we should act without delay."

Prof. Dr. Ernst Rudin, head of Nazi Germany's eugenics program.
"Eugenics Sterlization: An Urgent Need." - Birth Control Review,
Volume XVII, Number 4 (April 1933), pp. 102-4.



Both Sanger and the Nazi Rudin believe it was imperative that the "middle and high
grades" also be "prevented from procreation." Compare Dr. Rudin's quote to this
one from Sanger:


". . .there is sufficient evidence to lead us to believe that the so-called 'borderline
cases' are a greater menace than the out-and-out "defective delinquents" who can be
supervised, controlled and prevented from procreating their kind."

Margaret Sanger. The Pivot of Civilization.
Brentano's Press, NY, 1922, p. 91



The founders of Planned Parenthood printed Dr. Rudin's article in the same year
that he worked with SS chief Heinrich Himmler to draw up German's 1933
sterilization law which called for the sterlization of all Jews and "colored" German
children. The Nazi sterlization law bears a shocking resemblance to Margaret
Sanger's own "Plan for Peace." printed in the April 1932 issue of "Birth Control
Review."


CONCENTRATION CAMPS: SANGER'S
"PLAN FOR PEACE"



Sanger's plan called for the formation of American concentration camps to "corral"
that "enormous part of our population" with "hereditary taints":


"To apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of
population whose progeny is already tainted. . . to apportion farm lands and
homesteads for these segregated persons where they would be taught to work
under competent instructors for the period of their entire lives. . ."

Mararet Sanger. "Plan for Peace." Birth Control Review
Volumn XVI, Number 4 (April 1932), pp. 107-8.



What percentage of the population would Margaret Sanger wish to segregate? After
citing army statistics she noted:


". . .nearly half - 47.3 per cent - of the population had the mentality of
twelve-year-old children or less - in other words that they are morons."

Mararet Sanger. The Pivot of Civilazation.
Brentano's Press, NY, 1922, p. 263



She went on to say that "only 13,500.00 [or 13.5% of the 100 million U.S.
population of the time] will ever show superior intelligence" ibid. p. 264. These
must be her "thoroghbreds." the ones who are not "tainted." Remember that she
considered "borderline cases" the most dangerous. Thus, for Sanger, 86.5% of the
population would be "morons" or "borderline cases" and prevented from procreation!
Not even Hitler went this far.


For the 47.3% who "are morons" she suggested:


"The emergency problem of segregation and sterlization must be faced immediately.
Every feeble-monded girl or woman of the hereditary type, especially of the moron
class, should be segregated during the reproductive period. . . we prefer the policy
of immediate sterilzation, of making sure that parenthood is absolutely prohibited
to the feeble-minded."


So much for "reproductive rights!"



Of course she could not keep people segregated without the use of barbed wire and
guard towers. In other words, Sanger was talking about concentration camps.


We know what happened in Hitler's camps. If Mararet Sanger had been able to
build her concentration camps, would the same thing have happened? This would
depend on how charitable she was. Read on. . .


SANGER'S VIEW OF AMERICA



"Borderline cases" - "a greater menace" = 39.2%

"Morons" - Sterilize and Segregate = 47.3%

"Thoroughbreds" - Allowed to Reproduce = 13.5%




The Fruit of Their Common Philosophy:

Hitler's - Planned Parenrhood's

HOLOCAUST

Motive: Inconvenient

Rationalization: Sub-human



HATRED OF CHARITY


Chapter 5 of Sanger's book is titled "The Cruelty of Charity."

In it she wrote:


"Organized charity itself is. . . the surest sign that our civilization has bred, is
breeding and is perpetuating constantly increasing numbers of defectives, delinquents
and dependents"

Margaret Sanger. - The Pivot of Civilization.
Brentano's Press, NY, 1922. p. 108



Sanger's words are almost identical to Hitler's:


"This is in keeping with the humanitarianism which, to avoid hurting one individual,
lets a hundred others perish. The demand that defective people be prevented from
propagating equally defective offspring is a demand of the clearest reason and if
systematically executed represents the most humane act of mankind."

Adolf Hitler. - Mein Kampf
vol. 1, ch. 10 1925



Given the striking similarity in their monstrous rhetoric, it is reasonable to assume
that Sanger would have grown weary of feeding these "delinquents."


In this same chapter Sanger went on to mention "a special type of philanthropy
or benevolence, . . . which strikes me as being more insidiously injurious than any
other. . . to supply gratis medical and nursing facilities to slum mothers." The
Pivot of Civilization. p. 114


Sanger considered help to poor mothers the very worst kind of charity.


What was the root of her hatred of the poor?

Read on:




". . . 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, .
. ." ibid., p. 187


In a democracy the majority rules and Sanger was afraid of the
under-class outnumbering the elite. She was paranoid about "submitting to the
dictates" of those "who never should have been born at all."


This hatred for the poor, especially the most destitute, clearly placed her on the
extreme fascist right.



PLANNED PARENTHOOD TODAY:



In Mararet Sanger's time, the Birth Control movement made no attempts to hide
the eugenical philosophy that drove it. Only after World War II, when the
public's eyes were opened to the horrors of the Nazi death camps, did it seek to
distance itself from the term "eugenics."


Today's Culture of Death would seem to be more "egalitarian" than in Mararet
Sanger's day: the targeted peoples seem to be indiscriminate, without reference to
race or class. Or are they?


In light of Planned Parenthood's philosophical history, the meaning of its current
politics becomes more clear.


While Sanger and her eugenical colleagues opposed giving maternal care to poor
women, the one service Planned Parenthood does not offer is maternal care. The
only choice offered by Planned Parenthood is the choice to kill - not to plan for
parenthood.


Is it any coincidence that the founders of Planned Parenthood were racists and
Nazi propagandists. . . and that so many of its clinics today are in minority
neighborhoods. According to their own statistics, 42.7% of the abortions performed
by Planned Parenthood are on minorities - that's three times more than on whites,
as a percentage of their respective populations. Is it any coinidence that Planned
Parenthood publicly supports China's brutal one-child policy which coerces or forces
millions of women into having abortions. So much for "reproductive freedom"!


Like Adolf Hitler, Planned Parenthood has subjected us to a scape-goat philosophy
which blames societal problems on its poorest members, which sanctioning the avarice
of the richest. In its early days, Planned Parenthood inflamed the rich and
educated elite against poor people with its philosophy of "racial health." Today,
the same organization continues to inflame the wealthy nations with a philosophy
of "population control." The effect of these two arguments is the same: poor
woman are coerced into abortion, birth control, and sterilization.


The eugenical philosophy pioneered by the likes of Mararet Sanger and Adolf
Hitler is not just a bygone memory. In many poor nations today (such as Peru,
Mexico. . .), oppressive governments have imposed sterlization on millions of poor
women. The United Nations talks a great deal about population control, and
many population control agencies will give humanitarian aid only to those poor women
who accept sterlization.


In this the first time you have heard of this side of Planned Parenthood? What
else is the mass media not telling us about the abortion industry?


Let us look forward to the day when Planned Parenthood clinics are made into
holocaust museums. We all must do our part to pray and protest for this end.
