NY Post accuses Sharpton of Corporate Shakedowns

June 15, 2008

This story is on the front page of the Sunday NY Post on 06/15/08. Now in fairness I must admit that the Post does seem to have some sort of persoanl animus toward Sharpton so keep that in mind when reading the story. While this is not the first time these accusations have surfaced this may be the first time a news organization and given businesses and names as to whom may have been shaken down. Some points:

The NY post admits that it has donated to Sharptons Organization NAN

It can only list 1 paying position that Sharpton was given. A $25,000 a year “diversity” board seat with PepsiCo.

Most “donations” were made to NAN ( National Action Network )

Long Island police beat innocent black man

June 6, 2008

Leave it to New York police to remind everyone that although Barack Obama has made history that this country still has a long way to go when it comes to black men and the police.

James Minter was handcuffed and beaten Garden City Long Island Police after they mistook him for the wrong man. He cooperated, didn’t resist and was still beaten. The police knew they had done something wrong because later on they went to the hospital and tried to apologize and make deals to get Mr. Milner to not file a complaint. What is so sad about them trying to make a deal is that they assumed because he was black that he had some criminal or legal issues they could make “go away”.
