It is fucked up how her image has been tainted because of the religious right. Sanger was a great woman who spent her life fighting for equal rights and protection. She should be seen as a national hero, especially to young women. She was pivotal in the fight for womens suffrage. Women who condemn her today would be tantamount to pilots who condemn the Wright brothers today for their lack of foresight into jet engine technology..wow, i just realized how fucking stupid i am for believing all the right wing lies about margaret sanger.
margaret sanger was not a racist. quite the opposite, in fact:

margaret sanger was never associated with the KKK. she called them simpletons with the thought process of children.

planned parenthood was not formed to "exterminate black babies" or anything of the sort. that is pants on fire false.

i guess i can start shoving this back down the throats of the dumb racists who try to hold her up as some kind of a racist genocidal monster.
This woman was wholeheartedly involved in earning rights for other women and we should recognize that
