Ahem.

[We propose to] hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. And 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. --Margaret Sanger, ommenting on the 'Negro Project' in a letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble, December 10, 1939. - Sanger manuscripts, Sophia Smith Collection, Smith College, North Hamcpton, Massachusetts. Also described in Linda Gordon's Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America. New York: Grossman Publishers, 1976.

Note also that Ernst Rudin wrote a feature article on his methods for Sanger's Birth Control review. Who was Ernst Rudin? The Third Reich's Minister of Racial Hygiene.

What does a quote from 70 years ago have to do with what I said? Your assumption is that black women are self-hating, or just so incredibly stupid. That’s the real racism in this debate.

And let me add that living in the past never moves your argument forward. Come up with a quote from the last several years and then we’ll talk.
