NAACP, Wells Fargo and the Road Less Traveled

A little over a month ago, I alerted folks that Wells Fargo is a lead sponsor of the NAACP’s 101st annual convention.

The sponsorship came within weeks of the NAACP dropping its racial discrimination lawsuit against the subprime mortgage lender.

While patting itself on the back for getting Wells Fargo to commit to doing what the bank says it is already doing, the NAACP refuses to disclose the details of their “partnership.”

Whenever I hear Tavis Smiley talk about what Obama is not doing for the black community I just recall him standing against a backdrop listing Wells Fargo as one of his sponsors of SOTBU.

:sigh: Black Panthers anyone?

the Black folks of Alabama weren't too keen on his positions - gave 40% of their vote to the White guy. you know THAT was a statement/rebuke of Davis in the highest order.
