"If They’re Removing “Racist” Statues, They Should Tear Down Margaret Sanger’s"

"Margaret Sanger believed some people were “human weeds,” “reckless breeders” and “morons” who never should have been born.
With those anti-human attitudes, she founded Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion chain, which reaps in billion-dollar revenues while aborting 345,000 unborn babies each year. It does not hide the fact that it targets poor and minority women for abortions, too.
But, while rioters are defacing and destroying statues of U.S. leaders in the name of ending racism, Sanger’s statue still has a place of honor in The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.
“As our nation struggles to address racial injustice, it is unconscionable that an avowed racist and eugenicist is featured so prominently,” U.S. Rep. Russ Fulcher wrote this week in a letter to the Honorable Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch III, the head of the Smithsonian Institution.
Fulcher’s letter is part of a years-long effort, led by black pro-life leaders, to have Sanger’s statue removed from the national museum. With the renewed focus on ending racism, the Idaho congressman said it is time for the Smithsonian to act."
