The Clippings: Donna Brazile Meeting with Cornel West | BlackAmericaWeb
April 23, 2011
The Clippings — Donna Brazile, the interim chair of the Democratic National Committee, said Thursday that she plans to meet with Cornel West, the outspoken Princeton University professor who has openly criticized President Barack Obama’s leadership and questioned his commitment to uplifting the African-American community.
“I’ll be talking to Cornel West at Princeton University,” Brazile said, “and we’re going to address some of these issues.”
Brazile made her comments during a 30-minute conference call Thursday with black journalists. It was the first time a high-ranking Democrat publicly suggested meeting with West since the controversial activist made headlines for scolding Obama because the president agreed to cut $38 billion from the budget, which will adversely impact many African-Americans.
