Mark your calendar! The Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., senior pastor of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, will discuss the role of faith in the public square in a presentation entitled, The African American Religious Experience; Theology & Practice, at a National Press Club breakfast Monday.
According to an NPC news release about the event, Dr. Wright will also talk about his pastorate, his development as a theologian and teacher, and at how the issues of social justice and global inequities have shaped his faith and his fight for those who are most marginalized in society. He will address the legacy and tradition of education in his family. And Dr. Wright will put into perspective theologically, historically and politically, his ministry and public service that has been so widely discussed in the media.
FYI: The National Press Club breakfast will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. Eastern and Rev. Wright’s remarks will begin just after 9 a.m., followed by a question-and-answer session. Only “credentialed” press may cover this event with proper identification.
As of this posting, the event does not appear on the C-SPAN broadcast schedule, though I suspect that might change since it is listed as a “sellout” on the NPC web site.
Stay tuned, though, because I have a feeling the radical who served as Barack Obama’s pastor for more than 20 years has many more controversial headlines in his future.

What a crock! This guy hates America and he’s probably getting paid a ton of money to spread his vile to the media drones? Arrrgh!

I wonder if Wright will mention that he used to be a member of the Nation of Islam.

Politics Sucks…
Today we are told there is “video evidence of North Koreans working at a suspected Syrian nuclear reactor just before it was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike last September.” The Syrian facility is code-named Al Kibar. “The belief is that…

i cannot beleive some of the comments , Rev Jeremiah Wright is the son of a christian minister he never belonged to the nation of islam no more than the gov. of Penn that supports Clinton and is on tape praising the nation for their good works. The problem is not Wright the problem is that white America cannot live with the fact they might have a black man as President and that is sad, May God Bless us all.

Semone — That is absolute B.S! Despite the fact that you’re playing the “race card,” the fact remains that Rev. Wright is the radical whose own words show he’s the racist. ‘Nuff said.

The sun will burn you and you won’t know why.
Take a little at a time and soon you’ll get a little enlightened. If you keep it up, then you’ll get a lot of light.

E.J. — I’ve seen the light and Rev. Wright isn’t anywhere near it. Are you related to him?
