We must be talking about different videos.
In the video that is sponsored that I saw he was saying Trump is being falsely accused of being a racist simply because he tweeted something with a frog avatar. But Sanger said she wanted to exterminate the negro population is only seen as problematic. Then he doubles down and says Sanger successfully murdered millions of them but we give her a pass.

It is true she was a supporter of eugenics like others of her time. Nothing close to what Crowder claims though.
Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger is credited with making birth control legal and widely available.
Born 1879, Sanger, who was white, blamed her mother’s death on her frequent pregnancies. At the time, speaking about birth control could lead to arrest. She thought that if women could legally control the number of children they bore, their health and economic conditions would improve.
we found no evidence that Sanger advocated - privately or publicly - for anything even resembling the "genocide" of blacks, or that she thought blacks are genetically inferior.
"I have never run into any serious academic reference of Sanger or others wanting to ‘kill black babies,’" Indiana University professor Ruth Engs, a eugenics movement expert, told PolitiFact Georgia in an e-mail.
Sanger’s first birth control clinic opened in 1916 in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn, N.Y., which was mostly Irish and Jewish.
When she did open a Harlem clinic in the early 1930s, about half of its patients were white. Members of the black establishment, including DuBois and black newspaper the Amsterdam News, supported it.
in 1966 Planned Parenthood gave its Margaret Sanger award to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The civil rights leader accepted, and sent his wife, Coretta, to accept. The speech he wrote for the occasion stated that ""There is a striking kinship between our movement and Margaret Sanger's early efforts."
