Found this to be interesting: Pastor Anthony Evans of the National Black Church Initiative is not happy about Hillary’s VP Pick:
“Another Boring White Male in 2016 as the
Democratic Vice President Candidate Pick
(Tim Kaine)
Says Rev. Anthony Evans of The
National Black Church Initiative;
We are not Excited!
Kaine does not move us
Washington, DC The National Black Church Initiative (NBCI), a faith-based coalition of
34,000 churches comprised of 15 denominations and 15.7 million African Americans, expressed
dismay over Hillary Clintons pick for Vice President. There is no excitement about the pick of a
another white male to be the number two on the democratic ticket after the historical election of
the first African American president. This is a big step backwards in the face of the current racial
upheaval. His presence will do little or anything to bridge the current racial divide. The black
community was looking for a sign that Hillary would be different and bold. ........
Rev. Evans further states: The
Clinton-Kaine ticket offers no innovative, out-of-the-box solutions dealing with African
American concerns in terms of jobs, economic development, fair housing, and expanded health
role and a systematic stop stop of the prison industrial complex that targets low income, African
American males. They will not expand opportunity because of the current democratic
administration of Barack Obama who has demonstrated the inability to curtail racial segregation
in education and his ability to do nothing about providing avenues of capital for business
development. It is the only administration in recent years that black businesses have fallen. .......

Pastor Anthony Evans of the Black Church Initiative is NOT Dr. Tony Evans
NBCI’s position sounds racist to me.
