The Prophetic KKK Speaker: Margaret Sanger
This one is a must read folks. Go to Catholic Exchange for the complete article, The Prophetic Margaret Sanger, but below are a few excerpts:
President Obama has awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to feminist icon Gloria Steinem. Steinem, in turn, said she hopes Obama’s action “honor[s] the work of Margaret Sanger,” liberalism’s iconic racial eugenicist.
It indeed has.

But there was more to Margaret Sanger’s vision. She wanted to advance what she called “race improvement.” She lamented America’s “race of degenerates.” This meant purging the landscape of its “human weeds.” This included a “Negro Project” especially close to Sanger’s heart.
Not surprisingly, among those most impressed with Sanger’s work was the KKK. The Klan invited the progressive heroine to one of their celebrations. She accepted. Margaret Sanger addressed her hooded brethren at a KKK rally in Silver Lake, New Jersey in 1926.
Today, Sanger’s Planned Parenthood is America’s most prolific killer of black Americans.
And now, in 2013, America’s first black president honors Gloria Steinem with an award that Steinem says honors Margaret Sanger.
The Devil works in mysterious ways.
