Das Goldene Zeitalter vom 24. Juli 1929 beantwortete die Frage „Is there anything in the Bible that reveals the origin of the Negro?“ damit, dass Noahs Fluch über Kanaan „pictured the future of the Colored race“, dass schwarze Menschen „have been and are a race of servants“ und dass „there is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant“. The Golden Age, 24. Juli 1929

Die Position der Organisation oder ihre spätere Erklärung: Der Wachtturm vom 15. Oktober 1956 wies das Kanaan-Fluch-Argument zurück, als eine baptistische Körperschaft es verwendete, und Erwachet! vom 8. Oktober 1977 widmete einen Artikel seiner Widerlegung — „blacks are not, and never were, cursed by God“ — und schrieb die Lehre „religious leaders“, „church commentators“ und „churchmen“ zu. Keiner der beiden Artikel erwähnt, dass die eigene Zeitschrift der Organisation sie 1929 gedruckt hatte.

The Golden Age, “Bible Questions and Answers”

24. Juli 1929 · p.702 · Woodworth, Knorr and Martin, 117 Adams Street, Brooklyn, New York

“Question: Is there anything in the Bible that reveals the origin of the Negro? Answer: It is generally believed that the curse which Noah pronounced upon Canaan was the origin of the Black race. Certain it is that when Noah said, "Cursed be Canaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren," he pictured the future of the Colored race. They have been and are a race of servants, but now in the dawn of the twentieth century, we are all coming to see this matter of service in its true light and to find that the only real joy in life is in serving others; not bossing them. There is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant, and the joy that he gets from rendering faithful service is one of the purest joys there is in the world.”

The item is the second of two answers in the magazine’s unsigned "Bible Questions and Answers" department, immediately below an answer about James 5:14 and immediately above the children’s serial, which begins on the next page. It carries no by-line and no qualification.
