Reginald Jones, Music Producer & Promoter, is addressing the 25th Annual National Conservative Student Conference, apparently sponsored by Young Americans Foundation. He's doing great, talking about being harassed when he went to speak at Ithaca (City of Evil). He's at George Washington University, apparently.

Have you ever listened to this man speak? It's inspiring!

mhking, I hope you don't mind me tapping your ping list? I want to get people here before Mr. Jones is done speaking.

I guess I've posted a duplicate thread. I did a Search for "Reginald" and didn't come up with anything, so...

This is great, he actually came right out and used the "c" word in relation to African-American culture ("communism").

Caught it this morning live - great presentation - talks about the double standard in political life today -Clinton was sued as Gov of Arkansas for racial profiling and preferential treatment of whites over blacks, yet now is being inducted as an "honorary member" of the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame (? - may not be the correct title of the organization) - Jones concludes that it's not what you do or say, but "that little letter - D or R - by your name" that defines how you'll be received and treated on campus and in the press........

I've never heard him speak before; he's great! I'm loving that he names names... Danny Glover/Fidel Castro ...

Wow, I loved his impersonation of Joe Lieberman! LOL!!

...I'm loving that he names names... Danny Glover/Fidel Castro .....he does have some fascinating facts that I've never heard before - 80% of prisoners in Cuba are black - although black women make up only 7% of the population, they've received 35% of the abortions completed since RoevWade - but as he says, you'll never hear this kind of info from today's black leadership.....

That Cuba stat was from Washington Times, http://washingtontimes.com/world/20030615-121438-1741r.htm .... However, I don't know if blacks are indeed in the minority in general, the Times list them at 62%, but they are including everyone who has even a little black ancestry.

although black women make up only 7% of the population,
 they've received 35% of the abortions completed since RoevWade

And the crime rate went down in response.  It's an ill
wind that doesn't blow somebody good.

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
