The picture I see are most definetely a white women. Where can I find the information contradictory to that? Thank You for your insite.

Several American Birth Control League board members formed the group: National Society for the Legalization of Euthanasia as early as 1938. Many of that group's founders were Sanger Board Members and joint members of the Eugenics Society, a group Planned Parenthood Founder , Margaret Sanger , belonged to as well. ( SEE NYT "Sanction is sought for 'mercy deaths" 1/17/1938). Read Sanger;s writings for yourself here: http://www.lifedynamics.com/library/ , and don't skip past her autobiography where she brags that she received a dozen invites to speak to the Klan. Sanger did admit that Life Begins At Conception - something Planned Parenthood refuses to admit today. She said that anything that stops conception was an abortion and today Plan B does that, and Planned Parenthood calls Plan B non-abortive ! Sanger and her eugenic friends thought they would be able to forcefully sterilize all they deemed "unfit" thus the reason they originally despised abortion. But- when the laws worked against them in that effort- suddenly abortion was a solution. And legal abortion was the answer they sought for so many years because it has proved to eliminate more Blacks than all other diseases combined. You must see a new film: MAAFA21. The documentation in that DVD will knock your socks off and convince even the skeptic that abortion and Black Genocide are an evil racist plot. check it out: www.maafa21.com Sanger supported eugenics.

The concept of abortion was abhorrent to doctors and nurses who held their vocations in any honor, and not just because the procedure could be risky to the mother or because it was often a cover-up for illicit sex. If she accepted the basic scientific premise that each conception was a new human being, that can't have been an easy thing to shake off.
