Answer
Margaret Sanger appealed to both eugenicists and anti-poverty advocates in order to further her goals of birth control. Eugenists believed that certain traits were passed down from generation to generation, and that it was possible to improve the human race by preventing people with undesirable traits from reproducing. Anti-poverty advocates believed that birth control would help to reduce poverty by reducing the number of children born into poverty.
