KKK to Open Urban Family Planning Centers - Seeks Federal Funding

Inspired by the groundbreaking work of Margaret Sanger, the Ku Klux
Klan announced plans to open up Family Planning Centers in six of
Americas largest urban areas. The clinics will offer free family
planning services to all minorities regardless of economic need. These
services will include abortion.


In a press release sent out last week, the Klan had high praise for
Planned Parenthood but promised to do even better:

According to http://www.blackgenocide.org/planned.html Planned
Parenthood currently has 78% of its clinics in minority communities.
Although blacks are only 12% of our population, they have 35% of the
abortions in America. These figures are great, but we believe we can
do better. But we tip our hit to Planned Parenthood and its foundress,
Margaret Sanger.

In 1939, Sanger who had once stated, "colored people are like human
weeds and are to be exterminated," launched the Negro Project. The
Negro Project was an effort to dramatically reduce the number of
blacks in America through the use of birth control and sterilizations.
As reported by http://www.blackgenocide.org/negro03.html:



Prior to 1939, Sangers "outreach to the black community was largely
limited to her Harlem clinic and speaking at black churches." Her
vision for "the reproductive practices of black Americans" expanded
after the January 1939 merger of the Clinical Research Bureau and the
American Birth Control League to form the Birth Control Federation of
America. She selected Dr. Clarence J. Gamble, of the
soap-manufacturing company Procter and Gamble, to be the BCFA regional
director of the South.

Gamble wrote a memorandum in November 1939 entitled "Suggestions for
the Negro Project," in which he recognized that "black leaders might
regard birth control as an extermination plot. He suggested black
leaders to be placed in positions where it would appear they were in
charge. Yet Sangers reply reflects Gambles ambivalence about having
blacks in authoritative positions:

I note that you doubt it worthwhile to employ a full-time Negro
physician. It seems to me from my experience ; that, while the colored
Negroes have great respect for white doctors, they can get closer to
their own members and more or less lay their cards on the table, which
means their ignorance, superstitions and doubts. They do not do this
with white people and if we can train the Negro doctor at the clinic,
he can go among them with enthusiasm and ; knowledge, which ; will
have far-reaching results among the colored people.

Another Negro Project director lamented:


I wonder if Southern Darkies can ever be entrusted with … a
clinic. Our experience causes us to doubt their ability to work except
under white supervision.

Sanger knew blacks were religious people;and how useful ministers
would be to her project. She wrote in the same letter:


The ministers work is also important and he should be trained, perhaps
by the Federation as to our ideals and the goal that we hope to reach.


We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro
population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that
idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.

The Klan is obviously excited about its efforts to launch family planning clinics in Urban areas.

A Klan spokesman acknowledged off the record that its past efforts to
reduce the black population and had largely backfired: "Lynchings,
burning down churches and hangings created a lot of bad publicity for
the Klan in the past. We believe that by following in the foot steps
of Margaret Sanger, the Negro Project, and Planned Parenthood, we can
dramatically reduce the number of Negroes in America while at the same
time acting in a politically correct manner. We will probably even be
able to obtain federal tax dollars to finance our efforts."
