On a journalistic note: I would have rethought the headline for that...it could be construed as toe-ing the libel line.

(in order for it to be libel though, it must be wrong. The writer didn't mention where they found the "white's only "clause, and, in my not-so-professional opinion, that's a heavy accusation to make without saying "as found in their pamphlet/flyer/bylaws/charter/underwear drawer". Now if it is TRUE, then there's nothing to worry about, but it's a rough accusation to make without citing a source.)
I partially agree. I don't know how well-documented or well-publicized the "racist past" is. However, there doesn't have to be a "whites only" clause for there to a be a racist past since the organization would claim that it wasn't founded to serve a particular community.
