Parker in D.C. to defend the Bush Administration's impact on blacks

By Antonio D. French

Filed Monday, February 27 at 5:47 AM

State Rep. Sherman Parker, the House's lone black Republican, will be in Washington today. He was invited by the University of District Columbia's Journalism Club to be a panelist in a debate on the impact of the Bush Administration's policies on African Americans.

Joining Representative Parker in defending the Bush Administration will be Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) national spokesperson, Niger Innis.

Expounding on what they view as the negative impact of the Bush Administration on African-Americans will be Hillary Shelton, Director of the NAACP's Washington Legislative Office and Mark Levine, talk radio host and former Legislative Counsel to Congressman Barney Frank.

Professor Joe Elam, Club Advisor and Associate Editor of the Kingmaker Magazine and Denise Rolark Barnes, publisher of the Washington Informer, will moderate.
