That's not what they were doing....they were uniting the black voters to vote for one black candidate
...so they could win the election

and elect another black mayor...

The current mayor is the first white mayor in over 20 years...and he's running for reelection

"Elections for Savannah’s top office are nonpartisan, meaning all candidates who qualify end up on the November ballot."

But in the context of his post, he is right.

Conservatives start plenty of posts about black people and fixing black problems and "taking responsibility"

What does that have to do with the race of reporters being allowed to attend?

Well....you can try to paint the allies to be the same moral intent as Hitler's axis, since both were using war and violence, but you would be guilty of shallow reasoning.

The "white press" could potentially spin what was being said....for propaganda. Again, why do whites need to be there if they want black people to solve the problems in the black community? Why do you need to be there? How would it help black people solve black peoples problems?

So you want segregation. These people are discussing a mayoral candidate and if that community is not 100% black then that candidate will be serving other races and possibly other ethnicities should they win.

...cause if the shoe was on the other foot you would be screaming your head off

and rightly so

But it's good to know that only white people can solve the problems in the white community......
...and black community problems are black problems...and white people can stay out of it

What don't you understand? You want black people to take responsibility for the black community and leave whites and the government out of playing their role for what happened to blacks. Your expectation is implicit segregation and discrimination.....is it not? The only way for black people to fix black peoples problems is to FOCUS ON BLACK PEOPLE!!!! That is segregation. That is discrimination....because to bring something into focus is to take other things out of focus. Now if you want the government and white people to play and role in the RESPONSIBILITY....then by all means....you are invited to the meetings.


Of course the person that is elected will be serving all the people of the city. THus, it would be wrong for the person elected to have a "black only meeting" about the city, when the city has many races. However, if black people of the city want to get together and decide what is the best course of action for black people.....that is called taking responsibility for black people and again....why do whites or the white press need to be there?

How does a reporter have a role in the goings on of the meeting? Saying "black only press" makes it sound like some clandestine gathering.
