Well...in the interest of blacks taking responsibility for blacks....I am sure the "spin" would be in the interest of black people.....unless we let Jesse Lee Peterson in as a reporter.
Yeah...why don't you all just send one of your black conservative proxies to represent the white press?
So any black reporter who doesn't tow the Narrative will have his cred revoked? And what could they possibly discuss in this "meeting" that is going to help the black community in Savannah? What are they possibly going to come up with that hasn't been discussed/tried before?
Certainly they did not give them enough to offset all that was taken from them....and when you gave all those things out....white women took most of the pros of those programs (welfare...affirmative action...etc), yet, they were not side by side with blacks as SLAVES.
Slavery ended about 150 years ago.....
How is it then that there are blacks that are extremely educated and extremely wealthy and successful?..and always have been from the 1800's until now....
Might be time to rethink this whole black culture black community thing....

I heard there was even a black president elected. Twice.
Maybe because the mayor represents ALL the people regardless of color? If this was a meeting to specifically discuss fixing issues in the black community, then fine. But, it wasn’t. It was a meeting to discuss mayoral candidates and as such anyone they would eventually represent should have been welcomed.
They are gathering to elect the person who will best represent black people....what role does whites play in that? Once they choose this person to put their vote behind, then it is incumbent upon THAT individual to ALSO represent the interest of all citizens of the city. You are putting the cart before the horse talking about the responsibility of the mayor. I agree with you about the role of the mayor, but blacks are just gathering to ensure that someone will represent THEIR interest, not exclude the interest of others in the city, but as Mayor one is responsible for all its residents, regardless of color.
Surely they had to know word would get out....and this does not look good at all
"Organizers of a meeting to discuss an upcoming mayoral race in Georgia barred reporters from attending — unless they were African-American.
The Wednesday meeting at a church in Savannah was held to try to unite the city’s black community behind a single candidate for mayor in the Nov. 5 election. Signs at the door said “Black Press Only!”
White reporters were denied entry, while at least two black reporters and the publisher of a local African-American newspaper were allowed inside, the Savannah Morning News reported . Television cameras and recording devices were also prohibited."

true...Madam Walker is generally credited with being the first self made black millionaire...1800's
..but she wasn't, there were a lot more before her
What oddest about Walker, she made her $millions selling black hair products...
If all black were slaves.....how did they buy hair products?...and how were there so many free blacks buying hair products to make Walker a millionaire?
This is not about the emergency room. This is about a sign that says only people of a certain color are allowed to attend a meeting. Either it is wrong for every color to do it or it isn't.
So if one person uses violence in an unprovoked attack upon a person....is it wrong for the person to try to DEFEND themselves using violence? You can't just say violence is wrong....regardless...when one person is using it for an attack and the other person is using it for defense. Ergo, blacks are trying to correct/repair their situation using the means that were used to put them in this state of disrepair. You just refuse to acknowledge the difference in intent.
There are plenty of black Trump supporters. Contrary to popular liberal believe, not all blacks are waiting for Democrats to legislate them out of poverty.
