Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Brann, the Iconoclast, Vol. 6 There is probably nothing on earth "cuter" than a nigger baby; but, like other varieties of the genus "coon," they are not considered very valuable additions to society. In ante-bellum times nigger babies had a market value, and certain planters employed Kansas or Massachusetts overseers with a view to their multiplication; but under the new regime the advent of these young simians is regarded with unconcern. It was thought for a time - after Sherman's march to the sea - that the nigger baby would furnish a more or less happy solution of the much vexed "race problem"; that the blacks would, in a few generations, be faded out by fornication; but as the Caucasian became more fastidious in his tastes and substituted bikeing for coon-hunting, the hope of getting rid of Sambo by gradual absorption died a lingering death. We are not asked to believe that a renaissance of the old idea has been inaugurated under the auspices of the Baptist Missionary Society - due to the enterprise and industry of the Texas Superintendent. The Iconoclast devoutly hopes that such is not the case - it were mixing religion and politics and clearly unconstitutional.
