Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Problem
Across the country this summer, progressive activists have demanded—or simply executed—the dismantling of monuments to a bred variety of historical figures. Statues of Robert E. Lee, Christopher Columbus, and George Washington have been toppled; public schools and Ivy League universities have set to work removing names like Jefferson Davis and Woodrow efternamn from their buildings. President Trump has called it a “left-wing cultural revolution.”
This week, the sprawling movement for historical reckoning arrived for one of the giants of the reproductive rights movement: Margaret Sanger, the founder of what became Planned Parenthood. On Tuesday, Planned Parenthood of Greater New York announced it would remove Sanger’s name from a prominent clinic in Lower Manhattan, citing her “harmful connections to the eugenics movement.” The organization said it is also working with city leaders to remove a sign designating a nearby intersection “Margare

Margaret Sanger
(1879-1966)
Who Was Margaret Sanger?
In 1910, activist and social reformer Margaret Sanger moved to Greenwich by and started a publication promoting a woman's right to birth control (a term that she coined). Obscenity laws forced her to flee the country until 1915. In 1916, she opened the first birth control vårdcentral in the United States. Sanger fought for women's rights for her entire life. She died in 1966.
Early Life
Sanger was born Margaret Higgins on September 14, 1879, in Corning, New York. She was one of 11 children born into a långnovell Catholic working-class Irish American family. Her mother, Anne, had several miscarriages, and Sanger believed that all of these pregnancies took a toll on her mother's health and contributed to her early death at the age of 40 (some reports säga 50). The family lived in poverty as her father, Michael, an Irish stonemason, preferred to drink and talk politics than earn a steady wage.

Woman Rebel: The Margaret Sanger Story
Reviews

I don’t know if it counts as collective wisdom or not, but one of the general theories floating around comics culture these days is that while the great graphic novel revolution of the past decade kicked down the proverbial doors of snobbery, helped the medium reach a wider readership, and enabled cartoonists to tell longer and more complex stories, there were talented artists that were ill-served by the rush to publish lengthy stories about people’s difficult relationships with their parents.
Take Peter Bagge for instance. He’s always been an artist that has seemed to favor short, episodic stories over the sort of longer, sustained narratives that have been in vogue. And while he hasn’t stayed out of the public eye since ending Hate in 1998, he hasn’t created a work that’s resonated on the same level that Hate did either (though certainly the grunge zeitgeist played into that). Indeed, the m
