Margaret Sanger Was Anti-Abortion!?!? Peter Bagge on Planned Parenthood, Eugenics, and "Woman Rebel"

Views:862
@ReasonVids

Did you know that Margaret Sanger (1879-1966), the birth-control pioneer often credited as the founder of Planned Parenthood, was actually anti-abortion?

Reason contributor Peter Bagge's new cartoon biography of Sanger, Woman Rebel, is a deep, heavily researched dive into Sanger's unconventional life and times. An apostle and practitioner of "free love," Sanger was arrested multiple times merely for discussing contraception and sex. And, as Bagge explains in a Q&A with Nick Gillespie, her experiences as a nurse serving the urban poor led her both to condemn abortion and to push for female sexual autonomy.

Even Sanger's support for eugenics is widely misunderstood, says Bagge, who argues that she never embraced coercive schemes to enforce racial or ethnic purity. Whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, Bagge's take introduces you to a Sanger you've never met before.

And check out a brand-new, expanded hardcover edition of Bagge's Everybody is Stupid Except for Me, a collection of over a decade's worth of material for Reason magazine.

About 6 minutes.
