National Black Religious Summit 12 on Sexuality
The Dawn of a New Day

The twelfth annual National Black Religious Summit on Sexuality will be held July 9-11, 2008 at the Howard University School of Divinity. This year’s theme is “The Dawn of a New Day, ” which is so appropriate during an election year when we have heard so much about change from the political parties. In the National Black Church Initiative, all that we have done throughout the past twelve years has prepared us to make major changes within our churches relating to issues of sexuality.

Negative Spin Hasn't Spoiled Obama's Yarn

By Courtland Milloy
Wednesday, February 27, 2008; B01

Once upon a time, an audacious black man named Barack Obama decided to run for president of the United States. But a former president, a white man named Bill, wanted former first lady Hillary to have the job.

Or maybe not, because Bill began saying things that hurt his wife's chances.
