23 Aug 2005 African-American Leaders Call Press Conference to Discuss Record of Judge John Roberts

Project 21 Member Mychal Massie is participating in a Thursday press conference at the National Press Club in Washington on the record and beliefs of Supreme Court nominee Judge John Roberts.

Says Mychal:

John Roberts is the type of jurist who represents the beliefs of great Americans such as James Madison and Martin Luther King, Jr. Roberts is someone who can be relied upon to administer our Constitution as it is written and not how he or his political benefactors think it should be.

Other prominent African-American leaders expected to appear with Project 21’s Massie include Niger Innis of the Congress of Racial Equality, Robert Woodson of the National Council for Neighborhood Enterprise and Phyllis Berry Myers of the Center for New Black Leadership.
