The architect of the greatest genocide in history

By Michael Brown

When Harvard University Press published “The Black Book of Communism” in 1999, many readers were astonished to learn that communism had resulted in the deaths of at least 100 million people, an absolutely staggering number. But even that number pales in comparison to the number of babies killed by abortion since 1920 – more than 1 billion.

According to LifesiteNews.com, Thomas Jacobson of the Global Life Campaign “stated that he has very carefully tracked all actual reported numbers of international abortions from 1920 forward and found that the total has exceeded 1 billion since that time. That, he emphasizes, ‘makes abortion the greatest genocide in history'” – 10 times greater than communism with all its deadly effects.

And the greatest proponent of abortion in history is none other than Margaret Sanger, dubbed the “Killer Angel” in George Grant’s short biographical study of the founder of Planned Parenthood.

That’s why Grant begins his book by talking about the destructive legacies of Josef Stalin, Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler and Margaret Sanger, noting, “As the founder of Planned Parenthood and the impassioned heroine of various feminist causes célèbre, Sanger was responsible for the brutal elimination of more than 30 million children in the United States and as many as 2 and a half billion worldwide.” (Note that Grant’s figures are more than double those of Jacobson.)

Make no mistake about it: Sanger was a radical in every (bad) sense of the word, imbibing the most destructive causes of her day.

Her passion for abortion was anything but a compassionate burden for poor and underprivileged mothers.

Quite the contrary.

It was a way to stop the world from overpopulating by weeding out the most unwanted sectors of society, which is why, to this day, abortion clinics are especially plentiful in the poorer neighborhoods.

Be part of the movement to make abortion clinics an endangered species — “Abortion Free: Your Manual for Building a Pro-Life America One Community at a Time” is just $4.95 today!

As for her radicalness, in the first edition of her 8-sheet publication called “The Woman Rebel,” “she denounced marriage as ‘a degenerate institution,’ capitalism as ‘indecent exploitation,’ and sexual modesty as ‘obscene prudery.'” (“Killer Angel,” 32)

Her publication crossed so many lines that she had to flee America for fear of impending arrest.

This is the illustrious founder of Planned Parenthood.

This is why there is so much innocent blood on their hands.

Only an organization like Planned Parenthood could put out an upbeat, celebratory annual report detailing how many hundreds of thousands of babies it had terminated in the previous 12 months.

And only an organization like Planned Parenthood could announce the report with these words: “Safe, Smart, Connected, Strong, Global – that’s Generation Healthy.”

Generation Healthy? This is not far in spirit from what I referred to last year as “Planned Parenthood’s Pastoral Letter from Hell.”

Sanger was greatly influenced by Thomas Malthus (1766-1834), a cleric and professor who believed that “population grows exponentially over time, while production only grows arithmetically” (“Killer Angel,” 34-35).

That means that something intentional must be done to reduce population growth, otherwise there would ultimately be massive famine and agonizing death for much of the world’s population. And so he counseled that, “Instead of recommending cleanliness to the poor, we should encourage contrary habits,” with the hope that the poor would be wiped out by disease and plague. And he wanted to restrain those “benevolent, but much mistaken men” who thought they were helping the human race by trying to eradicate disease and plague. (See his magnum opus, “An Essay on the Principle of Population,” cited in “Killer Angel,” 35-36.)

Sanger was enthralled by the work of Malthus, writing, “My criticism, therefore is not directed at the failure of philanthropy, but rather at its success. These dangers inherent in the very idea of humanitarianism and altruism, dangers which have today produced their full harvest of human waste” (cited in “Killer Angel,” 47).

Ultimately, she found a better way to get rid of this “human waste,” whom she called “defectives, delinquents, and dependents,” and that way was abortion. (She also advocated strongly for promiscuous sex with birth control.)

That’s why, after initially targeting neighborhoods filled with “dysgenic immigrant Southern Europeans, Slavs, Latins, and Jews,” she developed the “Negro Project,” since, she explained, “The mass 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” (cited in “Killer Angel,” 52).

Yes, as she infamously wrote, people like this were nothing more than “human weeds.”

Stunning documentary proves that decades-old eugenics movement is alive and well today: “Maafa 21: Black Genocide in 21st Century America”

And in words that defy description, she proposed, “We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the 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.” (I appeal to every one of my African-American friends to get these quotes out as widely as possible. And I urge every reader to challenge Planned Parenthood with these quotes. You can do so politely, since the quotes are damning enough.)

There is no nice face to put on Planned Parenthood or Margaret Sanger.

They are collaborators in the greatest genocide in human history, and we can only continue to pray and work against their deadly designs and give ourselves to the cause of life.

The good news is that abortion clinics in America continue to shut down, with the smallest number of clinics open in more than two decades.

May we live to see the last of them closed.

May we live to see every human life esteemed.

May we live to see Margaret Sanger’s murderous ideology completely exposed, totally renounced and absolutely rejected.
