I am referring to the incident on Friday where two white journalists were expelled from a Black Journalist Forum meeting with JZ. In my industry we have the Black IT “Forum” that strives for the advancement of blacks in the industry. It is a bit of a joke as a lot of members consider it to be a means to self advancement rather than group advancement, but enough of them.
My issue is that I think the white journalists that were expelled showed a brilliant example to us whites as to how to deal with these “forums”. A lot of people have spoken out about these forums but nothing to date has been done about them, until now. Good on the journalist that were expelled and even better on the black journalist that left the meeting with them. There really should be no place for this type of organization in this country. Let’s call a spade a spade what happened there was nothing less than racism in action!

I am very disappointed in JZ for glossing over what happened, another bit of bad judgment JZ, you could have really won some points from the white community but no all you did was add to our fears.
