Civil Rights Leaders Urged to Denounce Leftist Calls for Violence Against Black Justice

Washington, D.C. – Project 21 Fellow Deneen Borelli is urging liberal civil right leaders to denounce violent, racist rhetoric against black Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas with the same vigor with which they sought out alleged racial extremism within the tea party movement.

“The NAACP, Al Sharpton, Marc Morial of the National Urban League and others command national attention whenever they allege racism in the tea party movement, but they’ve so far ignored the revolting comments caught on video in which leftists call for the hanging of a black Supreme Court justice,” noted Borelli, who is a frequent speaker at tea party events. “Comments such as these must be denounced far and wide, regardless of the political orientation of the person saying it. Calls for torture and lynching are not a matter of left and right — they are always wrong.” Read more

Did FCC Chairman Give Race-Based Special Interests Veto Power Over NBC-Comcast Merger?

Washington, D.C. – Members of the Project 21 black leadership group are questioning whether FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski’s approval of the NBC Universal-Comcast merger was contingent upon the two companies making major concessions to minority special interest groups.

Project 21 full-time fellow Deneen Borelli, who is calling for a Congressional investigation, says the FCC may have tacitly approved the “race card” being played against the companies.

“It would seem corporate shakedowns are still alive and well in 2011,” said Borelli. “It’s appalling that General Electric and Comcast are allowing themselves to be bullied by special interests. The fact that Genachowski jumped on board to essentially give the Obama Administration’s seal of approval so soon after the race-hustlers gave their go-ahead appears to be more than just coincidence, and it’s something that deserves the attention of congressional investigators.” Read more

NPR Double Standard: Taxpayer Funds Pay for Racist Rant

Soon After Juan Williams Firing, Black Conservatives Question Subsidies for Divisive Rant Recalling Arizona Shooting

Washington, D.C. – Project 21′s Jerome Hudson is calling for an end to all National Public Radio subsidies in light of NPR’s broadcast of a racialist rant on January 12.

The broadcast of Hispanic activist Daisy Hernandez featured derogatory racial language.

“Hernandez’s comments and NPR’s poor decision to air them highlights a hypocrisy at NPR,” said Project 21′s Hudson. “That, and the separatism voiced in the Hernandez essay, nightmarishly blur the lines between legal and illegal immigration. NPR, in airing it, effectively perpetuated America’s racial divide.” Read more

Black Conservatives on ObamaCare Ruling

Washington, D.C. – Howard Dean, a former presidential candidate and former head of the Democratic National Committee, opened up the new year on a hateful note by playing the race card against “tea party” supporters of limited government.

Members of the Project 21 black leadership network are condemning Dean’s lack of decorum and him simplistic interpretation of the historic midterm elections.

“Obviously struck and frustrated by the complete rejection of progressive policies and the reality of a host of new tea party-backed members of Congress coming to Washington, Howard Dean threw a verbal tantrum and made unfounded claims eluding to racism being a big factor. He should be ashamed of himself,” said Project 21 fellow Deneen Borelli. Read more

NAACP Says Tea Party Infiltrated With Hate Groups, Bigots and Racists

NAACP Fails to Disappoint with the Failure of Its Latest Tea Party Attack

Washington, D.C. – As expected, the new report that the NAACP is touting as proof of the radicalism of the tea party movement is rife with innuendo, hearsay and conjecture. Members of the Project 21 black leadership network are highly critical of a study obviously devised with pre-ordained conclusions and crafted to be a weapon to bring disrepute upon grassroots activism against the liberal big-government policies of the Obama White House and the current congressional leadership.

Our Founders as Racists?

By Barry Coe

The other day I was having one of my talks with a modern day ‘progressive’ when they spewed out how our founders were nothing but racist white men and how we needed to move past anything they thought. I asked exactly why he believed that way and his reply was that they only considered blacks as 3/5ths of a human and they were all slave owners. Now, considering my research on our founders, I knew this to be incorrect and my reply completely confused him. This is how people get labeled as ‘shallow thinkers’ by me. Read more

Obama Race Taunts Unsuited to the Presidency

Washington, D.C. – Mychal Massie, chairman of the Project 21 black leadership network, says President Obama recent playing of the race card is inappropriate for a President and for someone who has publicly professed a desire for a post-racial America.

“Obama’s comments further calcify his commonality, lack of couth, lack of propriety and unworthiness to be president,” said Project 21′s Massie. “Never in the history of this nation has there been a president who so perfectly lacked even the most basic qualifications and social skills pursuant to the office he holds.” Read more

MSNBC Shake-Up Needed

Washington, D.C. – Despite MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell’s alleged regrets about making race-tinged remark about Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, the nature of the offense and the double-standard regarding liberal hosts has a member of the Project 21 black leadership network is calling for a shake-up at a network known for it’s antipathy for anything right-of-center.

“MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell has joined a long line of liberal talking heads who make racist statements on the air when it comes to black conservatives, only to hear a deafening silence from the rest of the national media and the civil rights establishment,” said Project 21′s Jerome Hudson. “It’s time for that to change.” Read more

Black Conservatives See No Controversy at Tea Party Rally

Washington, D.C. – With the NAACP’s leadership throwing itself in with far-left groups in an apparent effort to paint the tea party movement as radical and potentially racist, black conservatives with the Project 21 leadership network who attended the September 12 “March on D.C.” report that nothing occurred yesterday that would interest these would-be watchdogs.

“This tea party was no different from any of the others. It was like others, but not the way the left is going to want to say,” said Project 21 member Bob Parks. “I encountered a lot of the usual nice people. I was called names such as ‘hero’ and ‘patriot’ even though I think that a bit over-the-top. I was forced by this mob to shake hands and endure the hugs of well-wishers. But this obviously isn’t what tea party critics are going to say.” Read more

Anti-Tea Party Site Demonstrates NAACP’s Continued Decline

Black Conservatives See Civil Rights Group Increasingly Becoming Political Tool of the Left

Washington, D.C. – A new NAACP initiative to monitor the “racism and other forms of extremism” of the tea party movement is being criticized by black conservatives with the Project 21 leadership network as yet another example of the once-venerable group allowing its reputation to be hijacked for progressive political gain.

“It’s regrettable to see a group that used to have such an honorable and credible reputation become just another political tool of the progressive movement,” said Project 21 member Jimmie L. Hollis. “I cannot help but think that there are some fine people working for the NAACP, but its leadership is doing it a disservice by crying wolf in this manner.” Read more
