Great New Book: Persuasive Pro Life: How to Talk about Our Culture’s Toughest Issue

We keep hearing great things about the new book:  Persuasive Pro Life: How to Talk about Our Culture’s Toughest Issue by Trent Horn.  

Now this from from the Curt Jester, Jeff Miller, one of our favorite bloggers:

Now having read Persuasive Pro Life: How to Talk about Our Culture’s Toughest Issue which was recently released I can say this book is another winner.... This book is just a treasure-trove in regards to both information and advice. Really this is the best presentation on this topic I have ever seen. I would say it would be highly useful to anybody from someone who might have casual arguments on this topic with co-workers and friends to those on the front lines of defending life.

Miller is right on target about this book.  And when works like this come along, it is incumbent that we all support these efforts, buy the book, and if we can afford to buy multiple hands and get them into the right hands.  Trent Horn did the tough work putting together this pro-life masterpiece, let's do our part now and get it into as many hands as possible.  Buy copies for your kids school, leave some in the back of church, give them out as Christmas  gifts.   

Washington Times: Margaret Sanger, racist eugenicist extraordinaire by Arina Grossu

Great post over at Margaret Sanger Blog linking to powerful Arina Grossu story on Margaret Sanger.  If you have a blog or site, consider linking to this Washington Times story:

Arina Grossu, the director for the Center for Human Dignity at the Family Research Council, 
set the record straight on leftist hero Margaret Sanger with a great article back in May in the Washington  Times. Read this and you gotta think, "Isn't it time for someone to make the movie, Margaret Sanger and the KKK?"  It would be a blockbuster and devestate the Planned Parenthood PR folks.

GROSSU: Margaret Sanger, racist eugenicist extraordinaire

The founder of Planned Parenthood would have considered many Americans unworthy of life

Recent articles have reported on an unearthed video from 1947 of Margaret Sanger demanding “no more babies” for 10 years in developing countries. A couple of years ago, Margaret Sanger was named one of Time magazine’s “20 Most Influential Americans of All Time.” Given her enduring influence, it’s worth considering what the woman who founded Planned Parenthood contributed to the eugenics movement.

Sanger shaped the eugenics movement in America and beyond in the 1930s and 1940s. Her views and those of her peers in the movement contributed to compulsory sterilization laws in 30 U.S. states that resulted in more than 60,000 sterilizations of vulnerable people, including people she considered “feeble-minded,” “idiots” and “morons.”

She even presented at a Ku Klux Klan rally in 1926 in Silver Lake, N.J. She recounted this event in her autobiography: “I accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan … I saw through the door dim figures parading with banners and illuminated crosses … I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak … In the end, through simple illustrations I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered” (Margaret Sanger, “An Autobiography,” Page 366). That she generated enthusiasm among some of America’s leading racists says something about the content and tone of her remarks.

In a letter to Clarence Gable in 1939, Sanger wrote: “We do not want 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” (Margaret Sanger commenting on the ‘Negro Project’ in a letter to Gamble, Dec. 10, 1939).

Her own words and television appearances leave no room for parsing. For example, she wrote many articles about eugenics in the journal she founded in 1917, the Birth Control Review. Her articles included “Some Moral Aspects of Eugenics” (June 1920), “The Eugenic Conscience” (February 1921), “The Purpose of Eugenics” (December 1924), “Birth Control and Positive Eugenics” (July 1925) and “Birth Control: The True Eugenics” (August 1928), to name a few.

The following are some of her more telling quotes:

“While I personally believe in the sterilization of the feeble-minded, the insane and syphilitic, I have not been able to discover that these measures are more than superficial deterrents when applied to the constantly growing stream of the unfit. They are excellent means of meeting a certain phase of the situation, but I believe in regard to these, as in regard to other eugenic means, that they do not go to the bottom of the matter.” (“Birth Control and Racial Betterment,” Feb. 1919, The Birth Control Review).

“Eugenics without birth control seems to us a house builded upon the sands. It is at the mercy of the rising stream of the unfit” (“Birth Control and Racial Betterment,” Feb. 1919, The Birth Control Review).

“Stop our national habit of human waste.” (“Woman and the New Race,” 1920, Chapter 6).

“By all means, there should be no children when either mother or father suffers from such diseases as tuberculosis, gonorrhea, syphilis, cancer, epilepsy, insanity, drunkenness and mental disorders. In the case of the mother, heart disease, kidney trouble and pelvic deformities are also a serious bar to childbearing No more children should be born when the parents, though healthy themselves, find that their children are physically or mentally defective.” (“Woman and the New Race,” 1920, Chapter 7).

“The main objects of the Population Congress would be to apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of population whose progeny is tainted, or whose inheritance is such that objectionable traits may be transmitted to offspring[;] to give certain dysgenic groups in our population their choice of segregation or sterilization.” (“A Plan for Peace,” 1932).

LiveActionNews: Planned Parenthood is targeting Black America. Sen. Mary Landrieu is helping them do it.

A great report from Adam Peters at LiveActionNews.com concerning Senator Mary Landrieu and her connections to the incredibly racist Planned Parenthood :  

Planned Parenthood is targeting Black America. Sen. Mary Landrieu is helping them do it

Democratic incumbent Mary Landrieu is waging a tough fight in Louisiana’s senate race. That fight got tougher this month as Landrieu faced new criticism from State Sen. Elbert Guillory.

Guillroy, the first African-American to sit in the State Senate as a Republican in over a century, appeared in an ad that accused Landrieu of ignoring black voters. Guillroy alleged that Sen. Landrieu’s lack of concern for education and economic development has disproportionately harmed Louisiana’s African-American community, particularly its children. I can think of something else that Mary Landrieu has done to harm black children: throughout her career, she’s supported Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider.

For years, abortion and racism have gone hand-in-hand. Disgraced President Richard Nixon favored aborting mixed race children, stating that an abortion was needed “when you have a black and a white.” Nixon also pointed to abortion as a means “to control the negro bastards.” That may have been why federal funding of Planned Parenthood began under his administration, a move that the group’s CEO praised Nixon for in 2012.

Since 1973, over 14 million African-American children have been aborted. Helping that process along was the the decision by Planned Parenthood to locate many of it’s facilities close to minority neighborhoods. This is demonstrated through a map available atProtectingBlackLife.org showing data from the 2010 US census as well as the location of Planned Parenthood abortion clinics. And as the following cases demonstrate, it’s not only unborn children who are at risk in some of these places

Scholar Researches Margaret Sanger Racist Allegations

The Washington Times recently ran a thoroughly researched piece by Arina Grossu, the director for the Center for Human Dignity at the Family Research Council, looking into claims that the founder of Planned Parenthood Margaret Sanger, was a racist and a eugenicist.   

The in-depth article on Margaret Sanger uses Sanger's own quotes to settle the dispute over Sanger's racism once and for all.
