In part 2 of studying the legacy of Margaret Sanger, we look at what she had to say in speeches, books, and articles. Sanger’s “birth control” may seem as innocuous as she articulated sometimes, but her goals were far more top-down. Eugenics, Malthusian population control, and racial bias all played a role in Sanger’s totalitarian prescriptions for society. After we see some of what she proposed as laws for the U.S. government, we can be thankful it never materialized.

Margaret Sanger: A Legacy of Death (part 1)
In part 1 of studying the legacy of Margaret Sanger, we look at a short biography of her life. Margaret Sanger believed large families caused poverty and that “prudish” laws like the Comstock Act forced women into “unwanted pregnancies.” She was a relentlessly defiant advocate for “birth control” via contraceptives. Facing several arrests and trials, she ultimately and gradually succeeded in her quest. Sanger started two organizations that would come together into what we know as Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Whereas Planned Parenthood’s function today is mostly as an abortion mill, Sanger herself saw abortion as “barbaric” and to clarify that her “birth control” was a civilized alternative. To understand Sanger’s mindset and not to defend her, we will
Are the Unborn “Trespassers”?
After Ohio Issue 1 passed, enshrining abortion access virtually up to birth into the Ohio state constitution, I saw a post from Laura Klassen on X explaining that abortion kills someone else’s body. One woman replied that this justifies abortion even more because an unwanted pregnancy makes the baby a trespasser. I had a brief exchange with this woman over whether an unborn baby is a trespasser. I also asked if she considered alternatives to abortion. Naturally, she expected a fully socialized society that could erase any financial impact a child would bring.

VICTORY Over Colorado Abortion Pill Reversal Ban!
Chelsea and I cover what went on over the summer since we last covered Colorado’s evil ban on abortion pill reversals. Bella Health and Wellness, a comprehensive, life-affirming family healthcare clinic sued the state administration of Colorado to prevent them from enforcing the terms of SB23-190. This law went into effect in April and restricts how life-affirming clinics can advertise and bans the current abortion pill reversal protocol. Federal District court Judge Daniel Domenico granted a narrow preliminary injunction against Colorado from enforcing SB23-190 against Bella Health and proports that they will likely succeed in their claims. While this battle isn’t over, we praise God for truth prevailing and exposing evil and protecting women and babies against Satan’s attacks. Sources
