Margaret Sanger's Eugenic Plan for Black Americans

Chittlin Talk has a very informative post on Margaret Sanger and her talk at the KKK Rally in Silver Lake. It follows below in its entirety:

The Negro Project

Margaret Sanger's Eugenic Plan for Black Americans

Say it aint so!:

"In 1926, Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was a guest speaker at a KKK rally in Silverlake, New Jersey."

"In fact, she was the guest speaker at a Ku Klux Klan rally in Silverlake, N. J. in 1926"
(http://www.scholarscorner.com/ethics/Anti-Semitism.html)

"In 1926, in what she called "one of the weirdest experiences I had in lecturing", Sanger even gave a lecture on birth control to the women's auxiliary of the Ku Klux Klan in Silver Lake, New Jersey, a group she found so ignorant she had to use only "the most elementary terms, as though I were trying to make children understand."(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Sanger)

And go to http://members.cox.net/gaelic/SangerKlan.jpg for an interesting photograph. Let's not "whitewash" history. I sincerly hope I am mistaken and she advocated birth control for KKK members. The friend of my enemy is my enemy.
