The Progressive Movement’s Historical Embrace Of Racist Eugenics

Federalist :

Independent Institute research fellow and professor emeritus of economics in College of Business at the University of Nevada, Reno, Thomas Cargill, joins Ben Domenech on the Federalist Radio Hour. They discuss the lack of educational materials covering the history of the progressive movement, particularly their implementation of eugenics and forced sterilization in order to attain a better society.  

According to Cargill, there are two reasons why there is a lack of teaching on these subjects. First, the progressives who spurred on this movement have been “very successful in dominating American education.” Secondly, Cargill claims that progressives wanted to distance themselves from the eugenics ideology that Hitler claimed in the 1930s.

Cargill also explained how figures like Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger felt justified in participating and enabling eugenics because they believed they were contributing to the forward movement of society. more here

  1. Not on your life or the lives of all those millions of dead black babies killed by abortionists since 1973. They don’t give a damn about anybody but themselves and their stranglehold on maintaining power over underprivileged black lives at all costs. Look at LBJ and his racism of saying that, “I will keep the n*****s voting for the Democrat party for 200 years.” Speaking of LBJ, it’s highly ironic that LBJ died on the same exact day that Roe v Wade was passed into law by the Supreme Court in January of 1973.

  2. Welcome aboard. Somebody has been posting about exactly this for decades. His name is JDHasty. It’s about time the “conservative” elites took on something of substance that is so conspicuous that the only explanation is you were too chicken shit until Donald Trump showed you what a real man looks like.

  3. “Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was a concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”
