The
Republican group Project 21 is back again. This time praising President Bush for the appointment of Gerald Reynolds to the
United States
Commission on Civil Rights (above). Reynolds has advocated for the elimination
of affirmative action. To place him in charge of the Commission
is a slap in the face of minorities and all who respect civil
rights. As you can see Project 21 is not a Black Group. It's leadership is white. Yet as their latest press release says, "Project 21, has been a
leading voice of the African-American community since 1992." Welcome
to OZ - where we have a fake white group fronting like they are Black,
bestowing praise on Bush for appointing a Black man who is not really
Black. Pictured above:

- As stated by Ron Walters "Black conservatives in America do not have a mass constituency in the Black community or linkage with institutions indigenous to Black America. Nor have they sought to build such a constituency or such linkages. Rather, their role is not to lead Black people but to lead White opinion about Black people."
- Black Skin, White Masks? "In essence, conservatives understand
the essential goal of propoganda and advertising: It is not necessarily
important what one says but who says it. A Black castigating welfare
and the moral depravity of the Black underclass cannot be called a
racist even if the intent is aimed at a specific sector of society,
meaning Blacks. Black conservatives function as "pet Negroes" within
the conservative movement and the Republican Party, giving cover to
whites' racist sentiment masquerading as public policy, and are
protected by conservative whites as "courageous individuals" when
attacking the liberal consensus on race management." Norman Kelley. The
Head Negro in Charge Syndrome (2003). Page 69.
"With the selection of Gerald Reynolds and Ashley Taylor, the once-venerable U.S. Commission on Civil Rights is finally able to begin a sorely needed restructuring and rebirth," said Project 21 member Donald E. Scoggins in a statement. "By appointing these highly-qualified individuals, President Bush illustrates his genuine commitment to the protection of all citizens. In these assignments, there is also reason to anticipate that this organization will once again become apolitical and professional in scope," Scoggins added. [more]
