ALERT – NDY Discussion of Kevorkian and Assisted Suicide on WBAI Tonight!

Sorry for the late notice, but I’ll be on Largest Minority Radio Show on WBAI tonight.  The show starts at 9:00 pm ET.  I’ll be on around 9:25 or so.  Here’s the description of the show and how to listen in:

Our next show airs Wednesday, June 8th, at 9:00pm on WBAI.  Our guests will include Aaron Bishop from the National Council on Disability, discussing a Congressional forum they hosted recently regarding the budget proposals currently circulating in Washington.  We’ll also discuss the recent death of Dr. Jack Kevorkian with Stephen Drake, Research Analyst from Not Dead Yet.  Tune in, 9:00pm Eastern at 99.5FM in New York or streaming at wbai.org!

I’d recommend tuning in at 9:00 pm to listen to the first part on the budget proposals floating around DC.  These proposals are of life-and-death importance to disabled people of all ages!

Link to WBAI is here.

  1. You do not believe Margaret Sanger had a problem with ableism as well as discriminating against other minorities? I suggest you read the book “Grand Illusions” by George Grant – there’s a classic that makes clear exactly how that evil woman felt about minorities in general and it is NOT a pretty picture!

  2. Victoria,

    I believe the message you wrote that I replied to (I can’t find it right now) implied that Sanger advocated killing adults with disabilities. Sanger was most definitely ableist, classist, and probably racist as well. I prefer going to sources like the documentary on PBS aired on Sanger. That made her feelings on eugenics very clear.

    As for her other advocacy, NDY isn’t involved with prebirth issues, so it’s not really on the radar.
