CL Bryant will attend the NAACP Annual Convention in Orlando on Sunday, July14th and Monday, July 15th before the keynote speeches to ask the NAACP to publicly denounce the racial attacks against black conservatives. Reverend CL Bryant commented, “As a former NAACP branch president in Garland, Texas, I was punished for my outspoken belief that as a Baptist preacher, my rights come from God, not the government. The...

<p>The NAACP is blackballing black conservatives. Specifically, two black conservatives: Deneen Borelli and the Reverend C. L. Bryant.</p> <p>You missed this? Considering the state of the liberal media these days, one shouldn’t be surprised.</p> <p>But there’s infinitely more to this story than this, although the rejection of Borelli and Bryant personifies the reason the NAACP has long since lost its hard-won credibility. Credibility that came from a long, distinctly honorable record of standing against the most vicious racism the American Left — yes the American Left — could dish out.</p>

Project 21 played a leading role in bringing public attention to...

Swaping RealityWhen you think television has scraped the bottom of the barrel, something even more ridiculous comes along.I got an e-mail from my editor at Project 21 today. He had been contacted by someone with ABC television, concerning an upcoming reality television show, The Swap, currently scheduled to air Summer 2004. They are looking for "conservative black families" to participate in the show.The premise? Two families swap moms for ten days. The first five days, the moms adjust to and try to fit into their new families. The second five days, the new moms get to make any changes they...

Michael Jackson. Go ahead, crack a joke, sigh or shake your head. Michael's lifestyle and his current predicament inexorably lead to those reactions. There seem to be only two main schools of thought concerning the one-time "King of Pop": he's either guilty of molesting a young boy and ought to be tried, convicted and put in a cell deep under a prison or he's innocent. These groups also seem to be split into two other categories: black and other. A couple of white friends have asked me why this should be. I chalk it up to history and love. Our...

Black America has a growing problem that needs to be addressed. It is, in my opinion, the most persistent problem facing us as a race in this country. Despite what "our" media-appointed black leaders tell us, this problem is not racism, reparations, affirmative action, President Bush or the Confederate Battle Flag. It's attitude. Overall, we have terrible attitudes. If we want our situation to change, our attitudes will have to lead the way. Many of our so-called leaders would like us to believe that we as individuals have absolutely no control over our lives. They want us to think that...

WASHINGTON (Talon News) -- After nearly three years of political wrangling over the nomination of Judge Charles W. Pickering, President Bush exercised his prerogative to put him on the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals while the Senate was in recess. Senate Democrats stymied Pickering's nomination through procedural obstacles when they were in the majority and finally resorted to a filibuster when faced with the certainty of confirmation if a floor vote were taken. In a statement Friday, Bush said that he was using his constitutional authority to appoint Pickering because "a minority of Democratic Senators has been using unprecedented obstructionist...

My New Business: "Some Of My Best Friends Are Black" Political Commentary By Kevin L. Martin I had some very interesting thoughts in the days after watching the exchange between Reverend Al Sharpton and Former Vermont Governor Howard Dean at the Black and Brown Debate in Iowa. Sharpton called out Dean on the lack of Blacks and Hispanics in his cabinet during his 12 years as governor, and Dean had to admit that the charge was true. Just as true as was former President Bill Clinton's lack of minorities in his inner cabinet. Dean and his handlers sought to downplay...

In the early 20th century, black educational pioneer Booker T. Washington noted: "There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs - partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose their grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs." Sounds like Jesse...

WASHINGTON (Talon News) -- Several groups, including the African-American leadership network Project 21, are asking the Virginia State Bar to investigate the role of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund in an alleged scheme to ensure the outcome of the landmark University of Michigan affirmative action case. The allegations came after Senate Judiciary Committee memos were obtained by the Wall Street Journal that detailed contacts NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund president and director-counsel Elaine R. Jones had with the office of Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) on April 17, 2002 that sought to delay the confirmation of judicial nominees...
