WIKI——PP founder Margaret Sanger worked with African American leaders and professionals who saw a need for birth control in their communities.

In 1929, James H. Hubert, a black social worker and the leader of New York’s Urban League, asked Sanger to open a clinic in Harlem. Sanger secured funding from the Julius Rosenwald Fund and opened the clinic, staffed with black doctors, in 1930.

The clinic was directed by a 15-member advisory board consisting of black doctors, nurses, clergy, journalists, and social workers. The clinic was publicized in the African-American press as well as in black churches, and it received the approval of W. E. B. Du Bois, the co-founder of the NAACP and the editor of its magazine, The Crisis.

Sanger did not tolerate bigotry among her staff, nor would she tolerate any refusal to work within interracial projects.

Sanger’s work with minorities earned praise from Martin Luther King, Jr., in his 1966 acceptance speech for the Margaret Sanger award.[79]

W.E.B. Du Bois was a nasty, radical leftwing communist.

He encountered socialist ideas while he was studying in Germany, where he occasionally attended rallies of the German Social Democratic Party.

In 1961, after a lifetime of scholarship and activism, he joined the Communist Party USA, saying ‘Capitalism cannot reform itself. Communism is the effort to give all…what they need and to ask of each the best they can contribute this is the only way of human life.’
