Briefing. PP like the whole eugenics, contraception, abortion and sex-ed movement was born in the 1920s and 1930s in order to reduce the population of the 'poor' and 'inferior races'. Many of the founders of the movement, such as Sanger, the founder of PP, are on record as racists and Nazi sympathisers. Popular disgust at the Nazi experience put the whole movement onto the back foot for 20 years, but with some changed names ('The Eugenics Society' -> 'The Galton Society" etc.) they survived and now they are back peddling the same wares.
In the context of American political correctness (PP is supposed to be a 'liberal', left-leaning organisation) and sensitivity to race this video is astonishing.
