NAACP Leader Balks At Idea Of Congressional White Caucus

Cornell William Brooks, President and CEO of the NAACP, was at loss for words Thursday night as former Reagan adviser Jeffrey Lord injected a hypothetical Congressional White Caucus into a debate on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360.

The racially charged exchange began during a discussion of President Trump having asked an African-American reporter from a black-focused new radio outlet if she knew the leadership of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Oh boo hoo. If Brooks thinks it is OK to have a black caucus, then he should be OK WITH A WHITE CAUCUS.

I don't even have to watch. Let me guess: that would be racist! I have felt for a long time that the Hispanic & Black Caucuses are not the answer to unity. How can they be when you've segregated yourselves? Mind-boggling. A quote from long ago (sorry, never did know the author): "As long as you continue to make it about race, it will never be about anything else".

As if people of no color don't have issues specific to race.

What does NAACP stand for? Isn't that organization a little outdated AND redundant.

Of course he does. What else to expect form an ignorant black leader. Filthy human being from a filthy, depraved culture!

Don't think 'people of pallor' were asked to okay NAACP founding so why should he be surveyed if an opposite caucus is under consideration?

Good for the goose; good for the gander.
