“Keep the doors of immigration closed to the entrance of certain aliens whose condition is known to be detrimental to the stamina of the race, such as feebleminded, idiots, morons, insane, syphilitic, epileptic, criminal, professional prostitutes, and others in this class barred by the immigration laws of 1924.”

Thanks for the feedback but I am not certain why you posted the above?

I believe it’s a Margaret Sanger quote, showing her attitude regarding eugenics.

Perhaps I misunderstod you then? In post 35, you seemed to be saying that Margaret Sanger was NOT “one of the leading voices of eugenics.” I was merely offering evidence that she most certainly WAS a proponent of eugenics. My apologies if I got you wrong.
