I don't know why media isn't jumping all over this now that the last bastion of racism has been conquered, or so they have been bleating ever since Obama frauded his way into the highest office.
There should be no "state of the black world" anything in this country, rather it should be "state of the nation in the world" and chaired by the people elected to represent the nations people.
This line up of racists is why racism will always exist in this country- they are obsessed with the color of their skin. That's the first thing they see in the morning, the very first thought in their minds when they wake up, and the first thing they look at when they see another person on the street, tv, hear a voice on the radio.
Bingo. The mantra coming out of this conference will be, "Yeah, whites helped us elect Obama, but we're still oppressed, there's still racism, and we have to hold Obama's feet to the fire lest he kowtow to our white oppressors."
