Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood wrote in her autobiography that an abortion at any stage is the taking of a human life.
Her book, “Woman and the New Race†(1920), in Chapter X, Margaret Sanger calls abortion “a disgrace to civilization.â€
“While there are cases where even the law recognizes an abortion as justifiable if recommended by a physician, I assert that the hundreds of thousands of abortions performed in America each year are a disgrace to civilization,†Sanger wrote.
In a speech entitled “The Children’s Era†at the Sixth International Neo-Malthusian and Birth Control Conference on March 30, 1925 Sanger spoke about the rights of the unborn.
“Human society must protect its children–yes, but prenatal care is most essential,†she said. “The child-to-be, as yet not called into being, has rights no less imperative.â€
