With increasing dogmatism on the far right, ideology that should have become extinct rears its ugly head. If we don’t stop this, a lot of innocent people will get hurt in the end.
That’s doesn’t exactly support your claim, or at least not very well. That article is light on the details, but from the sound of it, Sanger’s name was on a plaque of some sort, and her name isn’t exactly super well known, nor is her racist history, so it’s sounds like it was more or less forgotten. Second, a plaque within a single building doesn’t automatically reflect the values of an entire organization.
There are still confederate statues around, does that reflect the values of all american cities? No, of course not.
There are Carnegie libraries all over my city. Do those libraries hold the values that Carnegie did? Not really.
It just doesn’t make sense to label an entire organization as racist, let alone jump to the claim that “eugenics is still very popular” based off of one plaque on one building of one organization.
It wasn’t just a plaque on some wall they were removing, 2020 is when they finally denounced her.
