Planned Parenthood President Apologizes for Organization’s Racist Past: But What About Its Present… and Future?
SFLA Staff | April 20, 2021
STOP THE PRESSES. Planned Parenthood boss Alexis McGill Johnson has evidently discovered the racist roots of Corporate Abortion… but has not yet come to terms with its current racist business structure targeting communities of color. In an op-ed at the New York Times, McGill Johnson wrote: “Up until now, Planned Parenthood has failed to own the impact of our founder’s actions,” Alexis McGill Johnson wrote. “We have defended Sanger as

CW Network’s ‘Nancy Drew’ Series Calls Out Eugenicist Views of Planned Parenthood’s Founder
SFLA Staff | April 7, 2021
Considering that Hollywood is far more likely to praise Planned Parenthood and ignore its troubling history, it’s refreshing to see the CW network’s Nancy Drew admit the truth about the abortion vendor’s sordid beginnings. While the show’s March 31 episode only acknowledged the eugenicist views of Planned Parenthood’s founder Margaret Sanger in passing, the fact that the line made it

Many trends seem to start in Europe and make their way over to the United States. Let’s hope “abortion vendor renounces eugenicist founder” is one of them.

Margaret Sanger pioneered the birth control movement and founded Planned Parenthood. There are dedications to her throughout the United States (and even on the planet Venus). She is highlighted as a feminist, humanist, and “hero” for human equality. Here are the top two (publicly-funded) places she is commemorated: Her bust is on display in the “Struggle for Justice” exhibit at the Smithsonian Museum.

New York Planned Parenthood Decides to Renounce Racism (In Name Only)
Brenna Lewis | July 21, 2020
In a moderately surprising move, New York’s main Planned Parenthood abortion facility, the Margaret Sanger Health Center, has decided to remove their founder’s name because of her “harmful connections to the eugenics movement.” They are also looking into removing her name from a New York street, Margaret Sanger Square. It’s only moderately surprising because the abortion giant was forced

A History Lesson: Abortion & the African-American Community
Toni McFadden | February 14, 2020
February is Black History Month. And for black pro-life advocates, it’s a month of renewed vigor. Why? Because we know that abortion is history repeating itself, that the racist madwoman who founded Planned Parenthood is getting exactly what she wanted, and that this is a fight for our lives and our dignity.
